WeatherTech Front Side Window Deflectors - Dark Tint

WeatherTech Side Window Deflectors are custom-fitted aerodynamic rain guards built to slide into your vehicle’s window channels. They’re made from impact‑resistant, lightly tinted acrylic and are precision-machined to match the exact year, make, and model of your vehicle. These in‑channel deflectors allow you to leave windows slightly open for ventilation, even in light rain, without exterior tape or drilling into vehicle panels.

Key Features

• Vehicle‑specific fit: Engineered for a snug, OEM-like fit on specific models using precise measurement and design.

• Durable impact-resistant acrylic: Resists impacts, UV exposure and debris, and includes scratch-resistant coating.

• Low-profile styling: Subtle, aerodynamic form helps reduce wind noise and preserve vehicle aesthetics while shielding interior from rain splashes.

• Tool‑free, in‑channel installation: Slides into window channel with friction or optional adhesive tape—no drilling needed and minimal risk to paint or trim.

• Car‑wash safe (no brush style): Once properly seated, they withstand most automatic car washes—avoiding rotary brush ones.

• Lifetime limited warranty: Backed by WeatherTech for the original purchaser and vehicle—covers defects in materials and workmanship (excluding wear and misuse).

Ideal Use Cases

These deflectors are well-suited for:

• Ventilating during rain or heat: Keep windows cracked to vent heat or stale air, while preventing raindrops from entering the cabin.

• Reducing wind buffeting: Helps minimize uncomfortable wind noise when driving with open windows, although not completely eliminating it.

• Protecting interior surfaces: Shields upholstery and dashboard from rain or sun-driven debris.

• Secure, OEM-style appearance: Best for owners wanting both function and clean aesthetic integration without adhesive tape or aftermarket look.

Care & Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity:

Installation Tips

1. Clean the window channel thoroughly to remove dirt and oil, then allow it to dry completely before installation.

2. Insert the front edge into the upper window track, then gently bow and tuck the rear edge in. Leave a small gap (~¼–½″) at the top for proper fit.

3. Roll windows up and down slowly a few times (by hand, not auto-up) to seat the deflector fully within the channel.

4. Allow deflectors to set with windows closed for at least 12 hours before driving or washing.

Ongoing Maintenance

• Clean periodically with mild soap and water—avoid abrasive pads that may scratch acrylic.

• Inspect fit occasionally: if deflectors become loose or creaky, consider replacing supplied tape or adding high‑grade VHB double‑sided tape as needed (especially common in rear pieces).

• If windows bind or motors strain, inspect edges or consider trimming a small amount for clearance; contact WeatherTech support if cracking or malfunction occurs.

• Avoid brush‑style automatic car washes; stick with touchless washes or hand washing to prevent stress or dislodging.

Final Thoughts

WeatherTech Side Window Deflectors offer a refined, durable, and vehicle-specific way to enjoy fresh-air ventilation without rain intrusion or sacrificing aesthetics. When properly installed—with attention to fit and clean window channels—they can perform beautifully for years under WeatherTech's lifetime warranty.
