FAQ

How do Climair wind deflectors fit?

Climair wind deflectors do not stick on the outside of the vehicle like many cheaper brands.  Each wind deflector is precision made to fit a specific vehicle and are installed quickly into the window channel.

Does the bottom edge of the deflector rest on top of the window rubber seal or go into the window channel?

The bottom edge rests on top of the window seal. It's this that wedges the deflector into the window frame. It is important that the edge rests on the hard part of the rubber not the soft internal part. This will be explained in the instructions.

Do I have to lubricate the thin milled edge of the deflector before I fit them into the window channel?

Yes, this will help the fitting. Try a silicone polish or spray, or even washing up fluid. Do not use oil, grease, or a maintenance spray. These will only hold grit and dirt.

How do wind deflectors help?

They help in many ways. You can leave the window open an inch or two when parked to keep the interior cool without fear of rain. You can get fresh air, not air conditioned air, into the car all the time. If it rains you can still have the window open partially without getting wet. They are ideal if you smoke for getting rid of stale air and ideal if you have pets for leaving adequate ventilation. They also help to stop misting windows when it rains, condensation in the winter, and cut down the amount of side glare from the sun.

Do I have to fit clips, screws or use adhesive tape?

Climair wind deflectors install quickly into the window channel. Only a very small number of deflectors require clips.  All others have no clips or screws.  The rear deflectors fit in the same way and some have a thin self adhesive strip to help with fitting. This strip is not visible once fitted.

Do window deflectors reduce side glare?

Yes, all Climair deflectors are tinted so not only do they reduce wind and rain but side glare as well.

Does the thin milled edge of the deflector go between the window rubber and the metal edge of the door frame?

No, it fits into the same channel the glass runs up into.

Do I have to clean the top area of the window glass before I fit the deflector?

Yes, again this will help the fit. Standard window cleaner is fine.

Light smoke grey to match your cars tinted windows as most car windows are now lightly tinted.
