Help for cold hands

In spite of the fact that we enjoy mild winters in South Texas, we do routinely get into the mid 30's for lows. Lucille is my work transportation any time there isn't liquid falling from the skies, in addition to pleasure riding whenever possible. I have been able to gear up sufficiently to keep out the cold everywhere except my hands. After trying several types of gloves and not liking them for different reasons I decided to look into wind deflectors. I found and ordered some from National Cycle and after two weeks they arrived yesterday. I mounted them last night. The install was almost as easy as it gets, removing the mirrors and inserting the brackets under the nut when reinstalling them. Since we are currently enjoying upper 70's for temps wasnt able to do a true-condition test but in riding without gloves today I found they definitely cut the wind without looking too unGodly.

Here are a couple pics of the installed deflectors. Sorry for the poor quality, my cell phone doesn't take the greatest pics.
