From my experience they are terrible.

You hear more road noise and water can leak inside the window if you get crazy with the hose pipe. And they scratch the top of your windows.

+1. Look smart but they're sh1t.

I bought them to try and cure road noise/wind but they just sounded even worse.

Ive used heko ones on other cars before and found them pretty poor.

Ive used climair ones and they are so much better in my opinion, but do cost a little extra.

I have had clima air ones in the past they are alot better than the heko ones, but for the price cannot fault these.

Team Heko wind deflectors don't squeak or leak water, unless I've got a limited edition pair. :laugh:

No wind deflectors look smart - as bad as 'lexus lights' or yellow fog lamps imo.
