        To round up the topic:
I got a reasonable offer from my local Suzuki dealer on a pair of original Suzuki wind deflectors for Jimny (P.N. 00800-87530-000).
They cost me around 45 EUR for a pair.
So I bought them in summer 2015 and had them installed by the local Suzuki dealer, in order to have them take the risk of breaking the deflectors during installation.
I watched them performing the installation, and it was a "tense" job - they really had to bend the deflectors hard in order to make them fit in the doors. I wasn't breathing waiting for the deflectors to snap, but they didn't.
After the deflectors slipped inside the windows in the doors, they were not bent any more - they fitted like a glove.
The deflectors came with taped glue on the "brow" which slips into the door, but I chose not to remove the tape, so the deflectors did not glue inside the doors, they were simply mechanically held inside. They never fell out.
Anyway, I the package came with paper installation manual, which I saved, and scanned it.
I provide the scanned installation manual here in PDF format for public convenience.
