Or do you mean that the FG2 begs to draft?

Assuming you mean that there is a lot of cabin wind noise/wind leakage, then I advise that you take it into the shop... Mine doesn't have that issue, as I would be hounding the dealership like a rabid dog.

Can't do that here in CO - you'll get a busted windshield.

Ugh, sorry to hear that . The dealership offered a dent and windshield repair plan that lasts 5 years. I couldn't pass it up living here in CO. But, still, I don't want a cracked windshield ever...

turn it to recirculated air instead of pulling it from outside. That will stop (or should stop) any 'drafts' coming from outside the car. Oh yeah, and make sure your windows are up ha.

the door should be sealed, get the dealer to check that.... as for the center, its kinda hard to keep hot/cold out of the area your tranny stick is... just like the stick is going to be hot or cold, the air around it will be too.

So true... I hate the trucks that have the stickers on the back that say "Not responsible for broken windshields" I don't care, I stay far behind any trucks, but let me assure you, I will make that driver responsible when I throw a brick through his windshield.

Anywho... I see you are a local fellow FG owner. Haven't seen you at any meets though. You should bring the beast out!

Wait until late spring to get to get it taken care of. Starting to get cold, don't mind cold drafts. In Phx you embrace the cold
