Trying to stop water coming in

Featured Replies

By fitting these:

?koda Accessories

Every time i have the window open slightly when its raining i always get a flood of water coming in and soaking the top of the doorcard in side and also my arm.(i know shut the window but fresh air is always better)

Would these help the problem or just look odd?

Does anyone else have this problem?

You can get away with 1-2 inches open window using those, but they look bad. My dad has those on his car, and I'd gladly rip them off.

I find the same thing annoying too. I would not fit the deflectors cos i think they look awful. imo

£37 for a dry arm? buy some kitchen roll instead. p.s they look awful..lol

:iagree:they might help, but they look horrible.

They make your car look like a taxi cab. Oh, hang on. :lol:

They do work well - I don't mind them, but a lot of other people hate the look of them.

I must admit they do look cack.

Any other MK2 owners get water come in like this when it rains?

Yes...exactly the same problem...drips onto the window switch panel.:eek:

Fitted a set of deflectors from Skoda and it solved the problem...don't look too bad .. imo.

Are they a DIY fit?

How do they actually fit on?

I have had them on a truck and yes they do a great job, the window can be down to the bottom of the deflector without rain coming in.

They are a simple DIY fit, there are types that bolt on (not those by the look of it) stick on with sticky foam - this is what the Skoda ones would do at a guess, or just fit behind the window rubber.

Yes DIY...A super sticky 3M strip that fits to the door frame. The deflectors are a smokey brown colour.

I will be putting some upto date pics on the site soon, as I have fitted a Shark Fin (fantastic reception) and this week will be getting a tailgate spoiler fitted.

I dont think they look too bad but would be colour (of the car) dependant me thinks. I saw them on a 57 plate Jag a few days ago............
