Frequently Asked Questions
Are Team Heko wind deflectors any good?
They're a sensible choice if you like driving with the window slightly open. The acrylic deflects some incoming air and rain, and the vehicle-specific shape keeps the finish tidy. They won't make an open window silent or keep every drop out in heavy rain.
Which brand of wind deflectors is best?
The best choice is a set that fits your exact car and has the finish you're after. Team Heko is one established option; Climair is another. Check coverage, fitting method and the correct body style before deciding between brands.
How do you fit the clips on Heko wind deflectors?
Follow the instructions supplied with your particular set. HEKO sells different mounting types, including in-channel deflectors with clips and stick-on versions, so the clips aren't fitted the same way on every car. Don't force a clip into the window seal if its position isn't clear. Check the kit instructions or ask us to confirm the fitting method for the listing.
Do you have to declare wind deflectors to your insurer?
Ask your insurer before fitting them. Insurers set their own rules for accessories and modifications, including cosmetic additions. Getting an answer for your policy is safer than assuming wind deflectors are exempt.
Do Team Heko wind deflectors fit every VW Golf?
No. Golf generations and body styles have different window shapes. A set listed for a three-door Mk7 won't fit a five-door hatch, and an estate needs its own listing. Match the generation, body style and year on the product page.
