C4 side window deflectors
Has anyone seen (or made) a side window wind deflector for a C4 convertible?
I'm picturing this deflector would sit in about the same location as pre-70s vent windows.
At highway speeds just putting my hand there really reduces cockpit turbulence.
Look forward to replies I. think this would be a nice addition to my 96 convertible.

My old 96 LT4 vert came with black deflectors from the factory.. If my memory has not failed me then I believe the deflectors did not come on the coupes.

Yes, mine does have the outside mirror deflector inserts.
I'm thinking that a 6-8" extension to inserts at the same angle as the windshield side header.would help above 50 mph.
Thanks for the reply - hopefully I'm not the only C4 convertible guy thinking about this.

My '95 vert has them, my '96 coupe does not. My
'87 coupe also has them. They are still available aftermarket, I think.

I added the aftermarket ones to my 89 coupe. Make a big nice difference when driving with the windows down.
