Don't bother with them. All wind deflectors i have had on anything are a paint in the arse and ruin the pain work.

They magnify (spelling / strongbow) the sun and cause paint fading around the door tops and where they fit against the door they rub the paint off, unless you fit sticky padding which then wears away just leaving a sticky mess on the door till the deflector wear through it and then marks the paint.

hmm, what about the ones that slot into the groove that the window sits in?

I still say no. No wind deflectors fit really well in my experience. Just pointless rattly bits of plastic.

What you wanting them for? Its not like they will reduce wind resistance.

Ha ha, my neighbour had a spare wheel stolen of his transit van. Possibly the most common, cheapest spare in the world. It still got nicked.

Me too. I had considered putting security nuts and bolts on the bull bar too because that would be easy to nick.
