Hi all, I got a pair of Climair wind deflectors for my mk8 (3 door) and I'm having problems getting them fitted correctly. It's almost like the upright part of them (close to the mirror) are too long.

Has anybody else fitted them and has any advise?

Ford use climair, and even they are having problems with them, they crack, and like yours, do not fit properly, salesman said the window motors almost burnt out!!

Now, I've ordered a 5 door mk8, and got some Team Heko wind deflectors for my wife's mk8, (5dr) and they fit perfectly. I've looked for some 3 door versions for someone else, but had no luck, yet. Keep trying eBay etc, and remember to get the 2017+ Good luck, but if I do come across some I'll put a link in this thread.

Cheers for the info fordmad12. Sounds like thats £50 down the drain :(.

Yeah I did look for Team Heko 3 door ones but like you not had any luck.

Hi

Fitted Climairs to my Mk8 five door 5 months ago. I know the fronts are different from your 3 door but I had no difficulty fitting mine.

I recently bought what were said to be Heko wind deflectors from eternalcar-ltd  on eBay.   They snapped in half as I was fitting them so they obviously not Heko.   Furthermore, Heko have fitting clips and these did not.   I would suggest that members do not buy from this seller.   I've asked for a refund.

Not sure if this helps but the Climair ones my friend ordered were through the dealer. We ended up having to file down to make them fit!! So they will go in, just a bit of filing to do.

also use some Silicone Spray Lubricant where the deflector touches the window, before I had used it, the windows struggled, especially in the summer.

Hi @FiestaAndy - did you get these fitted in the end?
