Wind Defletors

Hi!

I'm going into the dealer tomorrow to order my new Roomster 3, the only option I'm looking at is the wind defletors - anyone have a Roomster with them and are they any good?

Re: Wind Defletors

'Cause I do like to have fresh air from time to time. I only want front and they are £35 - and I can let the dealer fit them!

Just wondered if anyone had them fitted and could comment - I've spoke to one person and he swears by them!

Re: Wind Defletors

Main dealer tried to fit them to my scout and broke them both, then said they didn't fit very well anyway. Mind you they also broke my towbar and scratched the bumper when they fitted it, couldn't work out how to fit the retrofit cruise control and scratched my Fabia when they had it in for service. I dont use them anymore !

Had a letter today from Skoda stating that the dealer that I had all this trouble with Streets Skoda Bristol, are "by mutual agreement, no longer hold the Skoda sales and authorised repairer franchise"
I wonder Why?

Re: Wind Defletors

Streets of bristol no longer have anything to do with any marque, they went bust. A number of threads on here where at least one member looks to have lost a LOT of money as a result.

Re: Wind Defletors

They are an excellent investment. Bought ours from ebay, quite a tight fit, pick a warm day so the plastic is easier to flex as you have to bend them to get them into the window channel.Once fitted seem to reduce wind noise at speed and you can have the window open slightly when its raining and you don't get wet!!!

Re: Wind Defletors

I bought mine, (set of 4 ) from EBAY at a cost of £ 17.00 ! They arrived 3 days later from Germany.
They fitted within 5 mins,although you have to cut a little plastic to fit the front windows.Having used them for a year now, all i can say is that they are fantastic. You can drive with the window down without getting the wind rushing in. Well worth the £17
