I have the hard wind shield and the dust is terrible. It gets sucked back into the cab. My question is does the Honda split wind shield open enough and let enough air flow through to eliminate the dust from getting sucked back into the cab?

No, it doesn't eliminate the dust, it's better when open but still dusty. I'm going to spend the money on the hard rear panel.

The less windshield obviously the best but even a soft rear helps a lot.

The dust can be bad, I'm going with the soft rear panel as well. Like that option as you can roll it up and out of the way pretty easily, or so it appears. Been so dang dry here in the southeast, dust has has been terrible!

Manwell said it best! My wife spotted you quick on facebook not even knowing you had installed that mid window. She said isn't that Drf? Yup!

I have the soft mid panel and it really doesn't help much, I bought a soft rear panel as well, hoping that helps somewhat. I was also thinking about making some type of wings on the side, kind of like the old wing windows in the old trucks that you can open to help direct some air flow into the cab. I'll post some pics when I have it complete

A lot of people were saying there was an improvement with the heat shield under the seat
