The fit of them is mint TBH. Best mod i ever bought for the corsa in functionality terms

They dont sell them if the car has leccy windows, but you can get them to fit with leccy windows, a few on here have done it.

What happens is when you first fit them, when you put the elec windows up, they hit off them, and come back down.

I put them up and down 10ish times, and the windows just went up past them. Over time they seem to just get in place. My passenger side one is perfect, but driver one sometimes struggles to come down - it always does, just a little slower as it tries to go past the deflectors. I tried to fix this the other day by using a file on the part that was rubbing to see if I could make it miss the window more, but didnt really work, and didnt want to take it too far.

To get them in you need to bend them somewhat (or at least thats how I did it) I slotted in the front near the mirror, and bent the back in towards the window, and it just slotted in. Can be quite awkward, but when you do it you can do the other one no probs.

Not a corsa but:



I like em when it's pissing down but can still have the window open a little without the rain soaking your doors and blowing in
