I have the bulbous factory ones.
They do wonders for the vehicles aerodynamics

Happy to off load them. Not sure how I'll packaged them though for postage

How much do they stop the blast of air?
Not having a working aircon, nor firewall vents, I need as much air through the window as possible.
Are the sticky tape jobs firmly attached, enough to take the odd stick attack? Flexible enough to not shatter too I hope...

If all that adds up then Dockstrada I will be in for a set, but I suspect they won't meet my expectation

We've had a set of the fairly bulbous sort (not the slimline type pictured above), and they are stick-on - on for at least a year.

Numerous scratches on them from bushes and branches, no sign of them coming off. They are actually pretty good for a bit of protection from branches whipping in - we always have the windows down and don't use the air-con.

They reduce the air coming into the cabin slightly, but not too much. Mostly they just move the air that's coming in slightly backwards, so it circulates around the cabin nearly as much, but doesn't blow right into your ear.

And, of course, brilliant with having the windows open while it's raining.

I have some on my 90 the same as your link. The wind has been noticeably reduced and also if you just want to open the window a couple of inches you don't get any buffeting whatsoever. Mine have been stuck on for a couple of years with no problem while out in the bush and they do take stick strikes easy enough. The only consideration while bush is as they are tinted plastic they do scratch, but if you use a plastic polish you can get rid of most of the surface scratches easily enough. I would recommend them.

I have the Climair on my 110.

I like that they slide into the groove and don't stick out past the window frame.

I don't like that as the plastic sits in the window channel, if you only wind the window down a centimeter, it rattles on the plastic.

I like that they now make matching ones for the back windows.

I don't like that my passenger side one got smashed by a branch.

I'll probably get a replacement side one if they sell them indevidually and get a set of back ones. I still prefer them to the ones that stick to the door frame, as they're a lot more discreet and less likely to break.

Like I said mine have been on nearly 2 years, have taken some abuse and haven't broken, they are the stick on ones so no rattles either.
