Yes .... I reckon they need replacing, as they could be the original issue shocks and springs !
Let’s see when they are stripped out !

Hi Stevo, interested in the Perspex type as I really don’t like the look of the mesh - general thoughts on these i.e. noise or anything from a solid breaker? Cheers

Lynne didn't real the mesh one so it was always going to be a perspex one for us we bought the etched one for 2 reasons firstly because I thought it was a lot nicer looking than a blank one and second so I could fit a light kit to it ( post picture in a min need to go out quickly take one. )
Noise wise never had a oe mesh one so I can only compare to none wouldn't say there's a significant difference between with and without.
Comfort wise
Huge difference between with and without when on the motorway a million times more comfortable no hurricane force wind blowing in between the 2 headrests.
I was down i Brigg in Lincolnshire on Sunday and I took the zed roof down 5 hrs all the way back Sunday was sunny but really windy still pretty good bar a bit blustery here and there coming over the A66 trans pennines road .
I have had my deflector on about 3 yrs now ( retrofitted roll bars) and its still in good condition.

I would like to say I don't drive with them on as you would get into bother for it.
The light kit just a fun thing for the odd time I use it

That does look good. Can you remember where you got the Perspex version? Thanks
