Title: Fulvia Berlina S1 wind deflectors
Post by: chriswgawne on 29 August, 2013, 05:15:41 PM
Would anyone have a pair of Perspex (?) Fulvia Berlina S1 wind deflectors which screw to the front door window frames? Ours are very cloudy for some reason so a reasonable used pair would be acceptable.
Thanks
Chris

Chris,
 someone told me that jewellers paste works on them, although I haven't tried it myself, anyway I shall keep my eyes peeled out for a pair.

this happens with most modern car headlamps fiat and Vauxhall being the worst, we flat them off with 1500 grit wet and buff them with paint polishing compound on a buffer, try it it may work for you j

Thanks Brian and James for the advice. However I have already tried rubbing compund to no avail. They are definitely slightly discloloured.
There seem to be a few NOS  rh ones  on ebay.it but no lh ones as one might expect.
I also tried S Africa but no stock there and Felix there has tried to unsuccessfully to get new ones made.
I will keep hoping someone can help.
Chris

Maybe Brian could ask at Cavalitto next week on the Knights Rally. If they haven't got any, he may know of a source.
Were they fitted as standard, or an optional extra?
Regards
Tim

Good idea Tim, I'll ask, they were a standard fit on series 1 Berlina, probably dropped when they found out they were great for scalping you, (as I know from painful experience) when trying to look out the window to reverse :o

I have acquired a brand new totally transparent wind deflector for the rh front door and so I just need one for the lh front door now.
They does not seem to be any NOS here in Italy but hopefully there might be a decent one for the lh front door  in the UK?

Chris.

Hi Chris,
I've sent you an email, but in case anyone else is interested Cavellito has them at 35 euro each.
