Hello
has anyone got or can comment on side wind deflectors, i saw some very good looking glass ones, but do they do anything ?
Alan

The good looking glass ones will probably be Simmonds. Sit down when you check out the price though.

I think the consensus is that they do not do anything.

But the Simmonds ones look so good that I would have been tempted anyway if it was not for the logo - Why do 3rd party accessory manufacturers insist on emblazing their name on a product? I drive a Morgan not a Simmonds.

Well said that man!

i have some - not Simmonds - came with the car so, sorry, I do not know where they can from.

I noticed when one had broken, that when driving in the rain the rain drops landed on the side screen of the broken side but not on the side where the deflector was intact. I there deduced that deflectors do serve a purpose.

They do reduce some of the gale blast round the screen edges.

Cheers,

I've got a set of the Simmonds wind deflectors that I picked up second hand. I do think they look good, I don't think they actually do that much, and I don't think they are worth the full retail price from Simmonds.

They do have an enormous advantage over the cheaper types in that they sit inside the side screens, so they don't impede the door opening.
