Side Mirror Wind Deflectors
In 1989, were the side mirror wind deflectors an option that could be ordered from the factory, or are all the ones out there "after market" pieces? I am preparing my car for Blooming Gold Survivor judging and do not want extra things that did not come from the factory. Thanks.

added them on my 92 coupe last year and they keep the wind from slipping between the 'A' pillar and the mirror and hitting you square in the left eye on those days that don't require sunglasses ... not sure about wind noise
I love them.
I love them.

My old '87 coupe had factory deflectors but my '93 does not. I will be adding them as they do help a bunch with both wind noise and stopping airflow right at me when driving.
