Wind Deflectors

Does anyone know where I can pick up wind deflectors for the front two windows? Mine were both cracked/broken.

Has anyone found aftermarket ones that fit?

Cheers,

Kuan

I heard Japanoid is getting a shipment of Delica accessories in soon. I'd also like a pair.

Mine are a pain in the ass.
The way they go on, they don't allow the window to roll up completely at highway speed. The pressure of the wind causes the deflectors to push in on the window moulding track, preventing complete roll up.
I want to rip the little bastards off all together.
Anyone have a fix for this? if so, I'd like to hear it.

rip them off. Mine only had one so off it came, looks way better as far as i'm concerned, the big ones look a little silly in my opinion.

depends where you live, here in alberta they seve little purpose but in provinces where rain is a common occurance they provide fresh air while not allowing the rain or heavy mist in...
i had a set in ontario and they were great when it rained the whole week i was there and the humidity was 95%

I love them... most of the time... except when the snow accumulates on them while driving...

I'm still looking to get a pair. Has anyone found a source for any wind deflectors that would fit a delica? I tried the climair site but didn't receive any response from CS

Biozach,

I saw a set on Japaniod's Buy and Sell link the other day. They were used but looked a fair price.

I have a set that we removed from our van. They are the larger ones, in good shape, need a polish to restore the clarity. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Thomas,

The windows on my Delica won't roll up all the way on the highway unless I pop the sunroof. It's just the pressurization in the van. Anyhow, I ripped the deflectors off on the first day because they were ugly... so the deflectors are not the cause of the windows not rolling up.

Mine is. Tried unrolling the other window a bit, opening vents, etc. I can watch the deflectors torque the rubber as we increase speed with the window open. My next step is to epoxy the rubber into the track on the outside of the frame to keep it from moving under pressure. Not a big deal really, just a bit of a piss off when I'm trying to ventilate a nasty fart at highway speed. Not that my farts smell bad - to me anyway - but my wife seems to be allergic to methane. Trying to cut back on the egg salad, cabbage and onion sandwiches. MMMM, cabbage...
