Title: Wind Deflectors.
Post by: AndyBrown on June 29, 2014, 11:58:04 am

Depating getting a set of wind deflectors for my 3dr white ED30.
Not 100% sure tho.

There are two main manufacturers iirc.
Team heko and climair.
The climair ones have a 'softer' shape, in that they are less angled as they protrude from the window.

Both are great though and fit snugly into the window seals.

I have the climair ones. Will dig a picture out later unless someone beats me to it.

Climair FTW. I've had both and the Climair ones are better than the Heko ones IMO. On my Mistress......

Just ordered a full set of Team Heko ones ..I'm a cheapskate ,plus I own a 4 door so thought £80 for a full set was taking the piss....but they both look the same, and will do the same job.

Arrive on Tuesday so will fit them in the evening I expect.

Will wait to see what you think of them. What did you pay and where from?

I had both on my ctr, the team heko ones didn't last long and one of them fell off. Bought the Climair ones after that which were miles better in terms of appearance and fit imo.

A lot of people don't fit the clips,  and result is they Fall off like u say.

For £32 for a full set (Ebay) (4 door)and reviews as good as Climair.
