Well obviously it's not going to have any effect on the ambient temperature, but they'll greatly reduce wind blast.

Just ordered a set for my 02' SVS (curvy) after YC and Grinch told me they would work.

Hopefully they will be here by the weekend.
Pics as soon as I get them fitted.

Yeah of course, so does this lack off wind blast mean good winter gloves are adequate?

You can also do as I've done and put the muffs over the top in bad weather. Helps as it stops the muffs pressing the leavers or colapsing at speed.
