Window Seal After Wind Deflectors


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I hope everyone is well in the current health crisis.

I have an IS300h that I fitted wind deflectors to about 18 months ago because part of my trip to work involved sitting on a car ferry.  With the windows cracked open for air, the rain came in hence I fitted deflectors. 

I now have no need for them and have just removed them.  However, I see that the window seal on both front windows is deformed.  I went for a drive and there is more wind noise than when they were fitted. 

Will the seals "recover" their original shape?

Is there anything I can do to remedy this situation?

Have I made a major mistake in removing them?  I never liked them anyway and had always planned on removing them when the car ferry ended. 

Thanks.

Hi anthony

Why not warm them with a hairdryer and try to push them back into position and see if it makes a difference?

Thanks. 

That will be worth a try.  I just felt the deflectors created noise that was noticeable because the car is so naturally quite inside.
