blobeye wind deflectors
 
i know they have them for classics and even seen them on bugs but blob eyes.
anyone know ?

Main dealer should do them, not that expensive, for my hatch they were about £80.

WRX Blues 27 October 2010 05:02 PM

You can get them. I had to get a replacement for my old JDM STi - some muppets broke the side window to nick my stereo and also smashed the deflector.:cry:

They took some time to get hold of - at the time they were waiting on a shipment or something - can't remember what I paid but no more then £100.

sorry to dig up an old thread, will the wind deflectors in the above post fit a 2004 sti?

http://www.subarupartsstore.co.uk/pr...oon_E3610FE000

says on description wrx sti up to 2002?

TurboAndy 17 January 2011 09:15 PM

Should do, nothing has changed on the body to make them not fit.

barnshaw 17 January 2011 09:20 PM

ok, thanks for the help mate, also, cheeky request but does anyone have any pictures of a blobeye with wind deflectors fitted, have tried search and google but not much on there!

TurboAndy 17 January 2011 09:25 PM

I have seen a hawkeye with them on but ill try and dig a picture out.

TurboAndy 17 January 2011 09:29 PM

looks smart that , whats the general consensus on them? dont see many people with them is that because they look crap? personally think they look quite nice

TurboAndy 17 January 2011 09:55 PM

Both of the subarus ive owned were JDM's and both came with them on. I quite like them, as you say Barnshaw you dont really see many people with them on.

You can drop the window maybe an inch & the gap is covered by the deflector..:thumb:
Fitting the deflectors also sorted the "bagpipe' whistle at 100mph+:D

Not very!
Fitted some a few weeks ago and to be honest there's very little difference in wind noise, rain deflection etc. The wife hasn't even noticed them! (probably a good thing!)
They're one of those 'if it's available I'll buy it' things.

How easy are they to fit?

Djgyro 01 July 2012 06:50 PM

Hi guys, sorry to be resurrecting a dead-and-burried thread but figured the ones that have could advise one that is considering!

Moved to Aberdeen a few months ago and it rains and rains and I cant drop my windows even a fraction because I get wet and the car steams up. Deflectors seem a good idea and would possibly solve the water ingress on the passenger side when I wash my car. Do you have to have a window-dropper to be able to shut the door or how does this work? I figured they must fasten to the pillars/roof line and thereby fit over the windows?? Excuse my naivity in this matter!

Cheers dudes :)

Once they are fitted they clear the top of the windows when the doors are opened:thumb:

Cheers, as it was pay day on Friday I can see a set of those coming my way in the very near future ;)

lol , i thought that noise was only on my car ! First i have heard someone else mention it.

daz1968 16 September 2012 10:25 PM

You can normally get them used from jap performance parts

axaQ4 13 March 2013 07:11 PM

jabbroni 13 March 2013 08:18 PM
