“Any time an overhead rack is mounted on a vehicle, there will be some incremental wind noise. In the vast majority
of cases, the additional noise is subtle and not objectionable. Sometimes, for reasons we cannot explain, customers
complain that the wind noise is intolerable. For these customers, we offer this Optional Wind Deflector. Be sure to
specify the Wind Deflector part number that is appropriated for your Congo Cage.
