wind deflectors??

[GAZKIRKMAN]

what do people think?
are they worth it style and practicality wise??

[Leo]

same question here, as i am considering adding these... quite recently i m very aware of increasing noise from passenger side....
waiting ur advice .............

[AZZA]

i got them on my 5dr, they look great and you can have the window down a bit when its raining and you wont get wet. No wind noise from them at all, only problem i can report is that sometimes when you put the passenger window up, it comes back down again half way. Have to put it back up stopping and starting to make sure it doesnt do it again, but as i said this only happens sometimes. I'd recommend them (Y)

mmm? and why it doesnt happen on driver side? are these ones from vxl standards for all models, or there specific ones for the astra???

[spamiser]

i was nthinking bout these at work :cool: :lol:

but im still undecided :/

[steve carter]

Might be a dumb question, but how do they fit, are they just wedged into the door frame?

[spamiser]

they are wedged in the gap where the window sits when closed. i believe clips also hold it in place :thumbs:

[V-Man]

Yeh i have a pair for my astra 3 door and they came with clips but havnt got around to fitting them yet.

[airhead]

I have an even dumber question, driving with your windows down?

[spamiser]

wat you mean by that question?

do you mean will they stay on?

or

why drive with your windows down?

[airhead]

why drive with your windows down?
Correct! I can see one reason, smoking in the car, which would be such a waste of money I shudder at the thought of it.

[spamiser]

i drive with my windows open, its nicer to get a fresh breezxe over the air con :thumbs:

but if you mean why drive with them down with wind deflectolrs, then i have no idea :lol: (other than smoking) maybe its down to habit :sus:

but my mum drives with her window cracked down a bit to hear for emergency vehicles (shes a doctor :lol:)

[dee_george]
