Corsa Wind Deflectors

Antony101 · 6 Sep 2013 at 11:37

I have a 61 plate Corsa and wouldn't mind some wind deflectors for it. It's a 4 door model. The noise made when the windows are open at speed is incredible and kills my ears. I'm assuming this is what wind deflectors help with?

Any recommendations on make and price would be great, are they easy to fit too?

Air conditioning is standard on all models bar the bottom of the range Corsa S.

Avoid nasty wind deflectors.

I drive long distance and even though the SXI does have air con I would like to be able to open the windows for the fresh air and to help me stay awake at times.

I think wind deflectors are superb especially in the winter when I can keep a small gap open in my window to stop the windscreen from misting up

This is why we have air-con.

Then even more reason to not fit nasty wind deflectors.

More noise will keep you awake.

To be fair, in winter if the temperature doesn't exceed more than a few degrees the air con might not turn on.
However, hot air from the vents will defog the window.

I personally would use the AC as often as I can rather than opening the window. That said in my wife's old Yaris that didn't have AC I stuck wind deflectors on and it did really help. The Heko ones are the best fitting and fairly subtle rather than random knockoffs - just eBay it!

The wife likes to have the window open a tad so i got heko deflectors on the bay for my Astra G. I beleive they cost me around £24 for a full set.

Costing me £150 for the s15 ones, the car doesn't look quite right without them though.

Aftermarket ones always seem to look like stick on tat, OEM only for me.
