Another Wind Deflector Question

Zebadee
in BMW Z3 & Z4 Series Forum

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

Apologies if this is a well trodden path but I have search the web far and wide for an answer but only came acorss one option.

I am looking for a wind deflector without wanting to go to the expense of getting roll bars fitted.

My Z3 (2001) has no roll bars but does have two little holes next to the center compartment. Sticking my finger down the hole there feels to be a ring about an inch down. I have tried putting a screw down there and it is about a 10m thread.

I'm thinking I might have to make my own deflector if I can't find something to work.

What are you guys using for a deflector if your model is like mine?

Has anyone here made their own ?

Any advice, comments would be welcome

Thanks
