Yes,

i have them... only running the fronts just now as removed the rears while cleaning and never puit them back on.

worthwhile investment, stops the water runing off the roof and straight in ur window

Thanks, both cars look really good. I haven't done anything to my FR yet, I don't want to go mad on it but a few subtle bits would be good.
I also like the cabon door sill protectors on the white lady car. Are these stanard accessories or where they custom made?

 

[cfcmick]

I had a full set of these...
Well I've still got 3 of them

Just be aware in the warmer days, if you happen to be on a private test road
and you are doing speeds that are above what is permitted on a public road, and you happen to have the passengers window open, you might just loose one

Apart from that...
a really good accessory to have for all the reasons stated above

if you dont fit them correctly with the metal clips perhaps

Well maybe yeah but I really did use the metal clips too honest

It might've been summat to do with the speed though

They are custom made by a guy off the site and the vinyl decals on them are from a guy who was happy to make them and sell through Ebay!

Why do those state 06- ...does that mean models made in 06 or before??
As you'd think it should state 06+ for models made in that year, and newer.

Dont want to make the commitment then find I do end up with ones that dont fit properly!
I think these wind deflectors will be a "mod" that EVERYONE starts doing (ie: Vauxhall / Ford etc...), then we will have to take them off, as they'd be considered "chav" !?

 

[White_Lady_170]

06- means 06 to present as the mk2 leon is still in production... its 06- you want.

I cant see these being considered "chav" by themselves, it takes a lot more add-ons of a more "unique" kind to be slapped onto a car before the "chav" label becomes used IMO

Great! Cheers for your feedback. Will be placing an order on those soon.
Also agree on what it takes for "said" car to be labelled as chav.

Heres mine,

Looks great Woody. How long have you had yours fitted?

I also like the rears too, where they taper off and are thinner towards the rear - sleek.

 

[pato]

hi woody
are yours the ones advertised in the first post? the ones from ebay.

 

[FR_Flavoured]

Do these simply fit into the door channel, or do you have to remove the Rubber seal first ?

pato - Dont believe Woody is using the HEKO deflectors, as those in the auction have white writing written into the plastic by the looks of it, at the top, near the end of the door ?

TBH, I think I prefer the sleek dark ones with no writing on them! lol.
