For those who like/want wind deflectors here is a site that i bought mine from,and they are not stick on type,they go in the window channel.
www.jjautomotive.eu.

They cost £29-89 in my money and it took 5 minuets to fit and you get all 4 for that price.

Interesting that they're charging the same for 4 as they do for 2.

Good link - thanks :D

I can vouch for the Heko wind deflectors, i had them on the ix20 and they cost me about the same.  Might just have to consider the i40 ones. :goodjob:

We have slimline wind deflectors on both our cars (purely for looks)  :goodjob:

Whilst the aesthetic value of them is useful, I also found that with the weather we get in the UK they are excellent for letting fresh air into the cabin without the usual associated wind noise and also they prevent window fogging on thise muggy wet days.

Surely the two piece set for the hatch are the same though?

I.m not sure about the rear doors - the tourer roofline is higher.

However, that is academic, because I have not found any for the 2012 GD hatch either.

Problem with those ones that go inside the channel of the window frame is that it could prevent the electric windows going up

stick on ones are available on ebay for £25 but it will be a long wait for them cus they are coming from s.korea

They are much better than the sticker only ones BECAUSE they go in the window channel, the groove in the deflector is the same width as the window, if you find the window struggling to engage at the very end then a bead of vaseline run along the top edge of the glass will smooth it out.

i had a short drive this morning,no wind whistle and with them open a bit,they let the air in and smoke out,i'm a hot young man ( in my dreams ) and the glass seems to go all the way up ( shouldn't have said that ).
Why you can buy the front ones for the same price for all four i do not know
