I have power windows in my 89 Westy. I ordered a set of clim-air wind/rain deflectors from MacNeil Auto and I had to return them because the fit was too loose. A couple of weeks ago I ordered a set from Steve at Eurocampers.com. They are apparently made by the same German company that makes the clim-air brand, but the ones Steve offers are a higher quality grade than the clim-air grade. They fit much tighter and are not loose at all. I will be keeping these. Steve 89 Westy
