WTB: Baker or factory
« on: February 23, 2013, 04:25:27 AM »
Interested in trying wind deflectors either factory, Baker, or any other brand/ home made. Good ideas on where to get the pivots to make my own also appreciated.

I made my own as many have done.  OEM makes some nice ones and so does Baker.  I guess it depends on if you want/can make something, or would rather just purchase something.  I made mine to work with the existing bolts.  Everything was aluminum or SS except for the smoked plexi.

You got it.  Make sure to chamfer your holes cleanly.  Plexi and Lexan like to send spider cracks out pretty easy.
