The best Windshield Solution would be to have the AKG C1000 within a complete Windshield basket (this applies to all microphones where possible).
The best solution would be:

Order Code: 086001

UK List Price: £356.40 exc. VAT each
Alternatively you could opt for:

Order Code: 104403

Description: 30/55 Mini Windjammer for foam
Order Code: 055376
Web link: www.rycote.com/products/055376
The only draw back from using a foam and Windjammer combo is that the back end of the microphone is not covered. This means it is still susceptible to wind noise hitting the body of the Mic and entering through the switch and XLR connection.
If this is the case, you could try covering the back of the Mic up with a soft material.
