My HEKO wind deflectors arrived today, only a ten minute look on my lunch, but i tried to get one of the clips and it it really doesnt look like it gonna fit.

Used a flat head to try push it up, but didnt click in.....anyone got pics or instruction on how to fit these?

Thanks

I use to run my own business before on Club Polo - selling these in batches.

there is a trick to fitting them!

Put the deflectors in place - dont worry about the metal clips first.
Plastic is fitted in place and held with tape.
Put your window up a little and balance the metal clip on the top of the window - with the sticking out v-bit on the outside of the car. Put the window up - it will carry the metal clamp clip with it. It will fit in the windo guide and the v-bit will dig into the plastic of the deflectors. Then go back and do it with the 2nd one.

Hope that helps

My last 6 cars have all had Heko deflectors - the company I deal with sends me a bottle of Bison Grass Vodka every year at christmas! :)

Cheers for the help bro...just one thing, it says to have the spike facing in.....but you think it better the spike facing to the outside of the car?

Thanks

Either way if fine, but what a found was the little spikey out bit digs into the plastic of the delector and holds them pretty tight.
