P500 Rear Panel window and highway winds?

[100Acre]

Should I roll up the rear Honda OEM window when traveling at highway speeds or do you think it'll be okay with the windshield in front of it? Also, do you leave the door Nets up as well?

I leave the door nets up, soft top comes off because it inflates like a balloon. For your rear window... you can roll up the center part only right? I'd do that.

I take the windshield off and roll up the back window, No issues and less wind resistance

@100Acre - Have we ever discussed using adhesive on the rubber windshield trim? Some people lose them going down the road. I used door trim adhesive to stick mine down. The reason I used door trim adhesive is because I had a tube of it in the garage.

I used a tube of 100% silicone caulk on mine after putting it back on for the 500th time, no problems since.


I bought my 500 in 2014, when they first came out, and put a full windshield and rear panel on before it left the dealership. I've either trailer or hauled it in the back of a truck for 1000's of miles, 3/2000 mile round trips to Colorado in one year, and always leave front and back windshields in place, never had a problem. I have removed both once to check the gas mileage and to my great surprise it made no difference on my mileage when pulling it on a trailer at freeway speeds. I've never taken either out again.

leave it on and glue your rubber trim
down.
