Those with Wind Deflectors...

[CHR15B]

Fitted mines today - they look not too bad.

Thing is, fitting them was weird - I tried one way and the window wouldn't go up, it jammed on the seal then went back down.

The other way, which I've stuck by means they sit in fine but when the window gets nearer the stop they slow down a lot as its a bit tighter... is this normal - do you guys have the same thing?

Other than that I'm pretty chuffed with them

dont scare me with this, they are on my list lol

If you hold the window button on it will go up.

I left mine a day and after that, the window goes up and down no bother.

I think its just getting the seal used to them.

 

[CHR15B]

Cool.

To check I've fitted them right, when the window goes up it should be in contact with the wind deflector on the outer side?

You can see them at the meet on Tuesday anyways buddy.

 

[muddyboots]

I think we need some photos

 

[Deleted member 13581]

Will have a look for you on Tuesday.

Pics will follow.

 

[CHR15B]

looking smart.. might get ones aswell

 

[CHR15B]

They're not too bad. I like having the window down in the rain and it's good to have that with no rain getting in.

I don't get any wind noise issues either

Thos elook nice mate, were they an ebay purchase? I'll be having a look at them on Tuesday and maybe make a purchase!

 

[CHR15B]

Yeah, seen some posts from Andy and some others mate and took the plunge. Only £20-£30 too, they're not too bad now they have bedded in

 

[CHR15B]

Took these off, decided after a few weeks I'm not sure about them anymore.

On the 'bay.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300154020376

 

[cuprakel]

are they genuine SEAT parts?

 

[CHR15B]

No, Seat don't do them.

 

[cuprakel]

hmmmm, iv always thought about getting a set of these but still kinda 50/50 on them.

did the interferance with the window you talk about earlier in the thread go away?

 

[dozza.13]

Must admit, they aren't my cup O' t, do they help to reduce wind buffeting?

 

[CHR15B]

Yeah after a few days they bedded in fine.

A lot complain of wind noise, can't say I noticed anything - don't have any wind noise issues with my car at all.

 

[dozza.13]

Seriously????? With windows down when get above 50-60mph I get horrendous buffeting, its so bad I have to close the windows! Thank god for climate control!

 

[cuprakel]

if i decided to bid on these (and won) would you consider pick up / meeting to save me a bit of cash??



cheers
