But hey, never pleased with the rear of the car, it hasn't been any good since that b**ch smashed into the back of it

Are they any good? Thinking of getting a set for mine.

They do the job. I open the front windows about 2in, so still covered by the deflector, and also the rear windows. That gets a nice movement of air through the car that remains comfortable on the motorway without getting blasted in the side of the head.

Awesome thanks :) Yeah agree with you when your at cruising speed its get annoying having to close your window a little or turn up the radio more.

I do a 40 mile round commute, most of which is at NSL, and it's great to be able to cool down a bit! They let in a lot more air than just the air vents on the dash, and I don't turn up to a meeting looking like I've been stood in a gale
