Jeez, they're only £40 posted. If you don't like them when they arrive, you won't have lost much. I'm sure you'd get £20 back if you sold them on ebay.

then eBay fees, PayPal fees, inconvenience of having to go to the post office during the day when I should be working, risk of damaging the door seal with fitting and removing if you don't like them (small risk but still possible) and the fact they will most likely look sh1t anyway when they arrive.

If you have money to waste then why not be our guinea pig?  :cool:

As I said earlier, I fitted some to my mates Superb and my Dad's Kia Venga recently. I thought they looked good and worked well. It is impossible to damage anything when fitting them or taking them off. They are secured with a tiny bit of double sided tape and a couple of spring clips that are pushed into place when you wind the window up.

Personally I wouldn't have / need them on my red Golf as I never have the windows open.

They actually don't look too bad but I'm at a loss as to why anyone would need them, especially when youve got fully automatic climate control?

Ive got the climate control but I like the windows open instead.  I know they arent to everyones taste but I think they look quite smart.
