GrahamJC Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 This is a question you should run past your insurer and get their response in writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAN@ADRIAN FLUX Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi, This would be classed as a modification so you would need to notify your insurer. If you have any issues with insurance then please feel free to drop me a line. Regards, Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil 87 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 ^ I would let your insurer know about the wind deflectors but it shouldn't affect your premium, it didn't in my case (although I took the deflectors off shortly afterwards). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hi, You would need to notify us of this, any change you make to the vehicle is worth notifying your insurer of - you would not like to come to claim and have it invalidated due to non-disclosing the modifications. By all means send me a PM with your policy details and we can check this out for you. Kind regards Dan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbohater Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I have said this before but what is classed as a modification.If wind deflectors are then surely different tyre makes would be, as would windscreen wipers ,spark plugs etc.I can understand performance mods needing permission but window deflectors?

Phil 87 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 ^ I think the difference there is that tyres and spark plugs are a replacement which needs to be swapped from time to time. Wind deflectors are an addition which the car was not designed to have, which I think is why they would be classed as a modification.

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 In the insurance company's' opinion window deflectors MAY make the vehicle more desirable & consequently more at risk - therefore it has been '' modified '' as deflectors were not standard fit. Finding out that you're not insured AFTER making a claim, or being claimed against, is a nightmare exceeding biblical proportions. The only opinion that counts for anything is that of the insurance company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
