KevanP Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Hi, I've been looking to buy a pair of wind deflectors for my SEIW to no avail. So looking to see if anyone has a pattern that they'd be willing to share to see if I can get some made. TIA Quote
dvd8n Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Not what you asked for, but FYI: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116208080606?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=fiVO1-I5R3K&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=oSrFTZZFRWa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY 1 Quote

Ross Seight Posted March 26 Posted March 26 I got this a while ago off somebody who made some I’ve made mine. Hope this helps you. 1 Quote

Thats a great help. I've discovered that as I have a full cage the standard one's wont fit. But these patterns will help me to get the rough shape and amend them to fit around the cage. So thanks very much, much appreciated. Its been doing my head in every time I go out getting blasted with wind around the side of the windscreen. 1 Quote

However, how much were you thinking of to purchase yours? Thank you - I presume you are doing your own as you said, @KevanP Thank you! Jens Quote
KevanP Posted Friday at 10:37 Author Posted Friday at 10:37 Yes I will have to make my own in order to fit around the roll cage Quote

SootySport Posted Saturday at 22:46 Posted Saturday at 22:46 That's where you're wrong, I have the Westfield without a roof &doors and two cars with rooves or roofs😀 Quote
jaykay42 Posted Sunday at 05:44 Posted Sunday at 05:44 Well, true. But you do live on the Riviera not the West Coast 🙂 Quote
Ewan Posted yesterday at 07:53 Posted yesterday at 07:53 I have wind deflectors, but am not convinced they do much, other than look cool. It’s still so windy that any benefit on that front is negligible at best. Had them on for a year or two, but off for the last couple of years. They are currently in the locker with other Westy goodies such as: Go-Pro - never been used/fitted. Boot-top touring/luggage bag - never been used/fitted. Standard roll bar - never been fitted. Harness seatbelts - removed to be replaced by inertia reel belts. Full hood - never fitted, needs poppers attached. Half hood. Had it three years, used it twice. Set of original V8 wheels - replaced with minilites. Not to mention the covered trailer - not used since the car arrived in it about 5 years ago. Yet I still find myself browsing the parts-for-sale section in case there are other things I probably won’t use or fit that I’d like to buy! 5 Quote
