I seem to remember seeing something about this ages ago. Has anyone successfully fitted these to a Panda (4x4). I have been trying and they just do not fit. Useless in fact, the window doesn't go up at all and they distort the rubbers..........
Help! :worship:
 
You must use two metal clips per window and bend out the deflector slightly so the window will go up. Then leave it closed for a day or two.

I had mine fitted about two months ago and they look great but they aren`t 100% fit. There is still place for improvement. No problems with closing but they tend to pop out just slightly from time to time. That is for the front pair. Rear pair is 100% fit on my car.
 
OK. I'll have another go. But don't want to damage anything.
Not too sure how to put the clips on tho, looks like there should be a tool of some sort to push them in with.
I'll persevere as I had them on my Defender and they were very useful.... :)
 
Just use credit card or flat-head screwdriver. Make sure to put the side of the clip with the little catch on the side of the deflector. The clip should just click in with a satisfying sound. Also this video should help you out

Done it! As you say they look great but I have to say I wish I hadn't bothered. They catch on all 4 windows and the back ones are worse than the front..... If asked I don't think I could recommend them.
I wonder if they are easy to remove ..... :)
 
Clips are tucked under the door seal, so just lift the seal and carefully unclip them. Use a small screwdriver and work it under the clip and it will pop off. After that is done you can just pull the deflector off.

I am thinking of removing clips as I think they prevent the window from closing 100% and they may damage the rubber after a period of time. I will probably buy and use strong double sided tape instead.
 
Yes, these are a pain to fit and not particularly good quality as they got scratched easily and discoloured after a while. I replaced them with DGA product. Easier to fit and after three years they still look like brand new.
