D4 Weather Shields

[mervwho]

Just picked up a set (front only) weather shields for the D4. A bit hard to see against the black but they work well. Available from Roof Rack Centre in Greenaway Street, Bulleen, Vic. $145.00 the pair. Roof Rack Centre : Roof Racks, Roof boxes, bike & ski carriers, weathershields and more ..... (http://www.roofrackcentre.com.au)

I got mine from dealer for $70, genuine, but with auto fold mirrors, the mirrors hit them on close, had to grid a small notch out of them. :o:o

Do they add to windnoise?

i would say they reduce wind noise

[mervwho]

i thought that they might being full size and not the slim fit ones but going down the freeway the day after fitting them and no noticable noise whatsoever.
The front of them actually butts into the raised edge of the mirrors so they fit quite snuggly. When fitting just remember to fold back the excess double sided foam and trim off the next day for a good seal.

Gents, while it appears noise is minimised, does that include the dreadful "drumming". I like to drive with the window down in preference to the eggnisner but with the MY13 the drumming is orrible even with another window open.

[BMKal]

Don't get any "drumming" in mine and I regularly drive with the window open.

I have the genuine LR weathershields on all 4 windows on mine - they work well and I've never had any issue with them (I don't have auto-folding mirrors though, so contact with these is not an issue).

[Mr smokey]

Thanks for that. Sounds like a worthwhile investment.

[Mr smokey]

Further to the above, just spoke with a LR dealer parts lot & they informed me that with the power mirrors it can't be done :(

I have weather shields x 4 with the power fold mirrors, no problems. Kero

I hope the dealer's service is better than their advice then :(

Got a front set from the dealer (Dixon) today. $77 + GST. They still told me they won't fit. Got the rotary tool out and now fine.

[Roulston]

I got a set of slim-line ones (all for) for $75 on eBay form an AU seller. About fours for post and very happy. Listed as D3, but fit the D4 perfectly of course. Dark tint, which is realy nice when the sun is just right.

Very happy.

I can find the seller if wanted, but he shows up on a search.

[Mr smokey]

Yep mine are the slim line. Big ones would have no hope without major surgery. Next step is a dash mat. Mate has a nice one from Fleabay somewhere.
