C-T-S spares based in Tamworth do a couple of  deflector styles and also sell brackets separately,  they have an e-bay shop. ;-)up

I used cobra ones with mines too. I used the grub screw type to secure to the window frame.

Hi,
was It worth the fitting of wind deflectors?  Did they make much difference to the buffeting?

Has anyone else seen a marked improvement...

Thanks

We've noticed a difference even without the roof on, (even seen someone light a cigarette on the move ).

Or make your own..... these would be a good start https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/AC857775/manx-mirror-mount-for-buggy-windscreen-frames-each/?crumbStartPage=1&crumbStartRow=1

We used those + slotted brackets made by Chimp and he also supplied some bathroom shelves for £3 pf evil bay but they clap on a manx screen not a flat edged UK buggy screen.
