Hi Boab, and welcome to the club...

Yeah, as Rush says, it's easier to replace the switch.. the wind noise is a common problem on all pillarless coupe's, not just the MX-6...
and £300 for a back box is daylight robbery.. even if it is a remus.. a scopion or similar is less than half that..

Also, although you say where you are, could you populate your profile, so the info doesn't get lost with this thread.

I used to have wind noise in my car, it's the curry!!!!!

But seriously we just had a quick bend of the glass (when fully up) and that was the end of it, until the next curry but hey, it's a small price to pay

BTW welcome and enjoy your car
