Aren't they designed to to be attached to the Sport Bars on the roadster?
I suppose you could install the sport bars in your coupe first, then attach the wind restricter to the bars. Several people have installed the sports bars in their coupes.
I think there is a "how to" thread on it.
Are you thinking about the installation to help curtail the wind buffeting that you get with just one window down?

Yes, but you will need the style that mounts to the center map pocket holes, like the "Windrestrictor" brand, and not mount to the "roll bars" style. I beleive someone else has already done this and posted his photos, just not sure how to find the post.

the answer to the question is, yes you can..... it can also act as a divider if you happen to have a pet riding in back.....
I tend to throw things from the front to the back on occasion so this would not be a could mod for me.....

There is a guy on the forum that turned his car upside down and had to crawl out the back. Bet he was glad that he did not have any additional impediments to his egress route. Might want to think about that before building your wall.
