One side of mine is a little loose. It also vibrates a little at certain speeds, Annoying buzz. Not surprising after I see how it installs. Four rubber grommets,Not what I expected to hold it on! I’m really scared that the 12” windshield I have ordered will be enough to pull it out of those grommets at speed!
