Sunroof deflector? Fairing

Post by AlanS »

Has anyone installed a fairing aka wind deflector on their sunroof? My wife has a 2013 S60 and would like one for the holidays...she likes the way it looks. Any suggestions?

I know this is coming WAY after the holidays, but the last (and only) time I had one of those tinted acrylic sunroof wind deflectors was on my (then-) new 1985 VW Jetta. When I removed it after about a year in order to completely be able to wax the roof of the car, I noticed its rubber gasket had left a rippled indentation in the paint’s clearcoat. Now maybe paint technology has improved since then, but I’d never put another one on any car I own.
