Wind Deflectors

Featured Replies

Fitted a new set of Team Heko wind deflectors today, rears fix perfectly. The fronts on the other hand 🙄 the front of the deflector fits good but the rear of the fronts are a pain in the arse. 

 

In the end I had to trim some of the deflectors off so the window would actually close as it kept triggering the safety mechanism and sent the window down again.

 

After some minor fettling and heat bending I was able to get the window to clear the deflectors. It's as if someone at Heko couldn't read a ruler. If the fronts were 3-4mm shorter they would fit like a glove.

 

I've seen others have problems and others don't so I guess it's whoever is on the moulding machine at the manufacturing plant as to get this inconsistentcy with fitment. 

Been thinking about wind defletors for a while now. But never really got round to it.  like you seen people with problems others without. Only ever seen heko ones  are there others? Other than a little fettlin do they just clip in place?would you mind if i ask where you got yours

I had a set fitted to my ol' Fabby, which I got for the cost of postage from this forum, many years ago... They were supposedly genuine Skoda parts and are a lighter tint then Heko's, which I have on a MK 1 Yaris. Like Heko's, they fit inside the window rubber and are not mounted externally, which looks naff unless on a larger vehicle. I also think a company called Climbair make them but they are quite expensive, whereby Heko are fairly reasonable. Again, there is a company called I-Speed, so there are a few brands to think about. 

Personally, I'd buy Heko or genuine.
