Gen 4 Wind deflectors

Has anyone got the genuine Suzuki door wind deflectors for the Gen4? I had some on my old Gen3 which seemed to fit by wedging in the glass channel. How do the new ones fit, looking at the photos they look like they stick on the outside of the door?

They’re stuck to the outside of the door with what looks like high strength double sided tape, there is also some little bracket things that are somehow wedged into the window seal (see picture)

I have some team Heko ones that slot into the window slot. They are excellent. I had some I ordered from Italy when they first came out which were flimsy compared so I would recommend the Heko if wanted some similar to the ones you had on a gen3. I didn't fancy the ones that stick to the paintwork like the official Suzuki ones.

The only problem i had with previous ones on the Gen3 was that they seemed to scuff the top edge of the drop glass. I'm in two minds which type to go for.

I have had the heko ones. super slim, absolute fantastic, but the clips have failed miserably, so much so that winding down windows the heko wind deflectors also move down.

still love the ultra slim design of the heko ones. pity that after some 12 months they not kept in place anymore.

This was what it looked like on my gen4.

Oh I see they have slipped down. I never bothered with the clips and used adhesive strips which is what I did when I had an Ignis as the metal clips made an unnerving glassy clunk noise when closing the windows. They haven't budged in nearly 2 years of having them in. 

Axholme - Ive not had an issue with then scuffing the windows but as the gap between the wind deflector and window is quite narrow its a pain to clean the top of the glass when washing the Jimmers without dropping the window down and running a cloth over top 2 inches. which is one benefit to having the Suzuki ones. one solution would be to have a Suzuki one on one side and a Heko(or equivalent) on the other side and see which you like best after 6 months

I just added the instructions of the Gen 4 genuine Suzuki door wind deflectors. There you can see the instructions that comes with the deflectors and see how they are attached.
