Default Does anyone use these?

And do they help?

I see we have a forum sponsor that sells a leather one too.

The stock 08's can fry your thighs in warm weather. I'm considering one of these solutions but need to know if they help. IMO, they are butt ugly and don't want to use anything if it's a waste of time.

Tell you the truth, the first time I looked at it I thought it was something to direct the engine heat to keep your legs warm. Learn something every day. Maybe they come in chrome!!
