A pillar deflectors

Fitting them without swearing

Hello, this is the method I used, adapted from putting windows into my '63 split.<br />
1. Place a length of electrical tape along the outer guttering, prevents scratches.<br />
2. Wrap same type of tape around the end of a medium flat blade screwdriver, prevents massive scratches!<br />
3. Find a long piece of parachute cord or nick the guy rope off your sons tent.<br />
4. Ease the screwdriver blade under the ouster edge of the window seal.<br />
5. Place the cord into the gap created by the screwdriver all the way down the seal.<br />
6. Take the deflector and place the leading inner edge under the seal.<br />
7. Apply some gentle pressure to keep this edge under the seal as you pull the cord down the windscreen seal.<br />
8. Your aiming to insert the plastic leading edge into the space vacated by the cord.<br />
9. When leading edge is well seated, spring the back edge over the electrical tape bad into the gutter.<br />
10. The deflector should now be wedged between the gutter and windscreen seal.<br />
11. Remove the electrical tape.<br />
<br />
you might need to attempt this's couple of times for it to work, best of luck<input class="ocp_keep_ui_controlled" readonly="readonly" size="45" title="" type="text" value="attachment tag (dbl-click to edit/delete)" /><input class="ocp_keep_ui_controlled" readonly="readonly" size="45" title="" type="text" value="attachment tag (dbl-click to edit/delete)" />
