Fitting wind Deflectors

[Chris197F1]

Going to fit my wind deflectors later, is there any hints or tips on doing this? Ive heard they can be a pain

Well unless I did mine wrong (hmmm what are these clips for !!) it took me 2 mins.

there pretty much self explanatory to fit tbh mate,wind the window down,peel back the sticky strips at each end of the deflector and slightly bend it into position,then use 2 of the wedge shaped things to hold them in position,i put them roughly 6 to 8 inches in from either end,the little spike on the wedge goes to the inside to grip on the rubber iirc,now sit back and admire yr handy work

They're easy to fit. There's a video on the Team Heko website that makes it even easier.

Don't lose a metal clip in the door though, like me.... It rattles from time to time lol. :rofl:

Cheers Tom that video was great, will fit them on my lunch break, I had to get the packaging out of the bin for the clips.....oops!

No worries man.

Lol, you can do them without the clips but they just make the wind deflectors more stable.

Well I've got them back so should be fine ha ha!

Are these designed to let you have the window open at high speeds and not have all the wind blowing into the cabin? Do they increase wind noise when the window is up on the motorway?

They're to stop wind noise when the window is open a little.

Personally, I don't think they're great at deflecting wind. I like them because I can have my window open a little in the rain and my door doesn't get wet.
