Door wind deflector - front doors (three-door)

£65.00 RRP Part Number - 5G3072193HU3

So tempted to order these, passed a GTI with a set on last week and I thought it looked quality. Bit naff maybe? Marmite I suppose

I'd be interested to see pictures if you order them

That's a slippery slope down to mudflaps, a picnic rug on the back seat, wooden bead seat covers and wearing a sandal/sock combo.  :grin:

Sometimes people who mod their cars put wind deflectors on and they look really smart.  On a standard 1.4 TSI I might not bother but a GTI with a couple of subtle additions could look nice.  Hence a few of us are on the fence over these.

Check out this Mk6 Golf R for example;

And here was me thinking you knew what you were talking about at all times ha. Mudflaps will NEVER be entertained end of.

Knew this would be a love it/hate it suggestion. I will invest in some , post pics and see what people think, but if you like it Monkeyhanger and follow suit, be made aware you will be royally ripped lol

Me too!

And I hate using the air-con so often have windows slightly cracked during motorway driving in the warmer weather, these would be very practical.

Be the guinea pig, let's see what they look like!

NOt for me, had them on the leon for a few years, thought they were great then took them off before i flogged it and thought they looked better, but i recommend you get some just to get it out of your system like i have.

Team Heko are a good shout

At that price that's going to be bought. As you say 5 door but that'll fit the 3 door and I can just well bin the back to deflectors or put back up on eBay. At 20 odd quid it's hardly expensive. Windows tinted on wednesday and with these deflectors I think it'll look the dogs b@llocks

Surely not?  The 3 door has a bigger door frame...

Ahhhhh damn it...Knew it would be too good to be true at that price. Can't find the 3 door version anywhere unless it's via vw website at 60 odd quid. At 25 quid if I'm not a fan it's fine but to waste 65 is a joke. Scottish and tight after all
