Was looking this morning and couldn't make my mind up. I see they are about £50 from shitroen themselves but i dunno if they are good or not lol.

30th November 2009, 08:47

There is a guy on Pug306 who does group buys on any wind deflectors, like £27 posted..

They are the Heko ones. £28.20 posted or £22 collected from Wales.

30th November 2009, 08:50

Grr. Wales is more that the delivery cost in petrol. I paid bang on £30 delivered. Just hope they actually fit and stuff lol

30th November 2009, 08:51

If they are the Heko ones, apparently the best fitting ones there is.

I would get some if I was keeping my car.

30th November 2009, 14:02

i keep meaning to get some tbh!

30th November 2009, 14:05

I think they look good, maybe colour code them?

30th November 2009, 16:15

I think they are already a "smoked" colour or tint should i say. Will fit in with the colour scheme pefectly. Quite looking forward to trying them now....god how sad

thanks i was like wtf ?!?! lol but didnt want to say hehe

2nd December 2009, 03:50

They look shit.

In my opinion obviously. No disrespect to anyones car. They dont suit the lines of the Spaxo, and Ive never liked the way they just stop at the end of the window. Obviously they have too but it looks awkward

2nd December 2009, 12:16

i find they suit some cars but not all

2nd December 2009, 23:54

Right well they arrived today. They are good quality and fit real easy. Problem is though, i didn't get any pics as it was dark when i fitted them.

I think they are goin to be abit lie marmite. Either u love em or you hate em. I'll try clean the car saturday if its not raining and get some fitted pics isn't up after

3rd December 2009, 00:01

my car came with them and took them of to see what its like and in my opinion they make th car look alot better and fit well

3rd December 2009, 00:05

Ben you going to The Bear down in Stock on Saturday? I think rem wants to get everybody out once more lol /hijack

think they will be marmite as you said. cant say ive seen many saxos with them on to know if they look ok.

3rd December 2009, 00:45

wind deflectors are the best things invented haha look awsome man! piece of piss to fit. BUY BUY BUY! team HEKO ones on ebay

3rd December 2009, 01:03

That looks niiiice. Love those OZ rims :-)

I got the Team Heko ones. I'm very pleased with the quality. Takes a little bit of getting used to when looking out the window now lol. Feels like looking out an aeroplane window lol. Well maybe not quite that extreme. Cant wait to see mine in the day light...

3rd December 2009, 10:32

they look good like

i can see myself ordering some on payday

4th December 2009, 15:38

If you're still sober, you can have a quick go in the 'S

4th December 2009, 21:42

I'll be driving more to the pub anyways mate unless my other half drives me. hehe...

4th December 2009, 21:44

4th December 2009, 22:14

I think they look good imo,my bruv has got some on his Integra DC5,i was thinking of getting some for my saxo,but im not sure weather itll look good,,i could colourcode them but not sure:/ It just something different on a 1.1.

I think they should look good on yours as judging by your pic, you have a blue car with black bumpers so should be a nice contrast and break the car up a bit

I'd go for it.

I'm going to order some for my GTI, and it seems the HEKO ones are the ones for choice. How do these fit on guys and girls?

Andy

5th December 2009, 08:52

they do suit your car ,so its all good

Andy

I may get some,they would be smoked though,unless i colourcode them,but ithink if i colourcode them they would be a bit too much,smoked could be a bit more subtle

5th December 2009, 20:06

I think I'll pick up a set after reading this thread.

6th December 2009, 15:38

didn't realise what these were until i read the thread, they look good i might have a look myself on good ol' Ebay

6th December 2009, 15:45

they fit by going in the slot where the window goes.

6th December 2009, 16:11

think i may have to invest in a set, probably just the ebay "heko" ones

6th December 2009, 21:01

team heko ones fit well fitted mine yesterday.

7th December 2009, 00:31

which are better heko or the cirtoen ones? and do they just push into the slot and thats it or?

7th December 2009, 00:38

They dont look nice imo

but its your car, so as long as you like it

i love it mate, sooooo much different to the sax
feels much comfier/safer

also i went from a 1.1 to a 1.4 16v so felt quite a bit of difference in power and speed.

tbh though i think about buying a vtr everyday, miss my saxo soooooo much!

7th December 2009, 14:31

do you use addhesive to hold them on? or do they hold themselves on?

7th December 2009, 15:20

They just slot in behind the mirror and the door seal

I love them

my mate has some on his civic and he uses adhesive to hold them in as he said they can fly off when your going 80mph+

7th December 2009, 19:42

haha fall off at 80. ive done well into triple figures and they wont come off, your mate must of snapped them or something... literally 2 seconds to fit. get the team Heko ones and they're already pretty smoked if u look at my pic i posted on page 3.

na they arent snapped, maybe its cos they slope more on a civic.

7th December 2009, 21:29

5 of me mates have civics, all with wind deflectors, not one has snapped, fell off or broke in anyway lol there fookin mega lad get some.

7th December 2009, 21:30

i'm going to say something really dumb...can you still open the window with them on?

7th December 2009, 21:34

yes luke, apparantly they're ideal for smokers as you can have the window open and it doesnt blow ash everywhere. Essentially, that's the idea of having w/deflectors..so you can have your window down, without being blown about inside at high speeds

7th December 2009, 21:44

cheers mate, i will invest in some after crimbo methinks

7th December 2009, 21:49

No worries, a wise investment

Yep, its like poor mans air con. Very good for me, great having a fag without having a pile of ash on the parcel shelf that gets blown back. nice one the motorway getting 'fresh' air without getting the wind scuttling noise blowing you to bits

8th December 2009, 11:13

i have the ebay jobs on my mk2 vtr i love them looks really good

8th December 2009, 20:03

Right finally got the internets working! Pictures are on their way...watch this space

8th December 2009, 20:06

bout time ben

8th December 2009, 20:08

lol...its taken me since saturday to get the damn thing clean

lol

8th December 2009, 20:12

Well here they are. I wasn't sure if i liked them when i first put them on as it was dark I couldn't see properly... Now the cars clean and a can see them i like them alot

Worth £30 delivered for sure

- A simple solution to Rainy days fresh air

!

They litterally just slide into place. The window still goes up and down no problem and they are a really really good tight fit.

8th December 2009, 20:21

Anybody know what its like when it comes to cleaning the car?

8th December 2009, 20:23

not too bad. bit annoying with water marks though

8th December 2009, 20:32

Can you whip it off, clean car and put it back on? Just another awkward shape to clean around.

8th December 2009, 21:24

You can do but you risk it snapping everytime. Its not too bad tbh mate. I just wound windows down abit and wiped the tops then wiped the lower half after. Then also wiped the deflector while window was open. Easy peasy :-)

8th December 2009, 21:39

I think they look smart put some on GTi other week

10th April 2010, 01:29

i want a set of the HECO ones but having trouble finding them

19th May 2010, 13:57

Just got a pair of these off ebay, accidently snapped the feckers

£30 bloody wasted !!
Dont know what i was doing wrong like, the window wouldnt go up fully just got jammed about an inch from the top....well annoyed now like
