Default Advise on fitting blobeye wind deflectors

Finally got my wind deflectors and i was wondering if the clip holder them onto the car is good enough or is double sided tape required as well?

I would have thought you can see the tape through the deflector? Also if tape is required would you put it across the whole length of the deflector or just in the place next to the clips?

Regards.

Do they not have tape already on them, The OEM(Genuine Subaru)ones come with a 3M tape with a red removable backing on and about 6 clips per side so that's how they should be fitted.

They should have tape already fixed (as per post#2) or are yours second hand?
