I have a 12" LRS installed on my 14 Limited. HUGE difference in turbulence buffeting vs. just plain ol clean air

Actually, I did notice a big difference with the vent with the stock shield but not so much after putting on my 7" windsplitter. I think if you get the right windshield on, you don't really see a huge difference with the vent but it works well, especially on the highway.
