a18nkd Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 Hi all just wondering what everyone thinks about wind deflectors on my mk1 galaxy do they work are they worth the £30 I may pay for them it says it helps when it rains as when I have a car full in the rain the gal steams up virtually instantly and the air con isn't that good in the summer so I have to have the windows down to keep cool I know the air con needs re charged but was wondering if the deflectors would kill these two birds with one stone and ideas would be very appreciated thanks Quote
gazmech Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 I got them on my mk1 and they r a God send in the rain and for if u smoke. Quote
sparky Paul Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 How long since the pollen filter was changed? That can cause demisting problems, also look for wet insulation under the passenger footwell carpet due to the rear wash pipe leakage. Quote
a18nkd Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Posted July 20, 2013 cheers all, paul pollen filter has been changed recently about 2 month ago no difference old one was a bit black tho, checked all the usual stuff water in the foot well (bone dry) the rear wash pipe (no leaks) the cover under the bonnet sat right checked all the drain holes (made sure they are clear) might give the deflectors a go Quote
viperclive Posted July 22, 2013 Report Posted July 22, 2013 Fitted them on mine real good in the rain so as to leave the windows cracked open Quote
Babs' Driver Posted July 25, 2013 Report Posted July 25, 2013 Agree with the pollen filter, just changed mine last week as serviced Babs while MoT.However, I've noticed that the wipers are so expensive?!?! I can't seem to find them for anything less than £20 each. Is this the going rate? Any help would be appreciated, I've noted the deflector blades cost more but may as well get them if there's no cheap alternative.I'm out of work at present and have practically no budget for spares!

a18nkd Posted August 16, 2013 Author Report Posted August 16, 2013 We were on about window wind deflectors not the window wipers but I have the AERO BLADE WIPERS off e-bay and think you can get a pair for £7.50 Quote
viperclive Posted August 18, 2013 Report Posted August 18, 2013 Does anyone know where I can get rain deflected for the rear windows? Quote
a18nkd Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Posted August 18, 2013 e-bay do a full set two front and two back tinted £29.99 Quote
