Wind deflector (Speedster 1998)

[Alexander Guntert]

Hi there!

My boat (1998 Speedster) is missing those wind deflectors that go on top of the front compartment hoods. I tried to find them on ebay used/new but no success. So I will try to fabricate one out of an acrylic sheet.

But unfortunately I don´t have one to copy from, neither good pictures of the part. So I was wondering if someone could be so kind and take some close-up pictures of the deflector in closed and open position, from above and from below the hood.

Thank you very much in advance and I wish you all happy and safe riding.

Prob because no one has a wind deflector left to take a picture of those thing would break constantly.but in a few weeks I'm doing a 98 Challenger 1800 I will see if he still has his deflectors

Thanks! Btw: Aside from being fragile, are they any good in deflecting the wind?

If you fabricate something that works it would be interesting to see what you come up with if yiu could post some photos

I certainly will, Rusty Nail. I plan to order a polycarbonate plate soon and start experimenting. I`ll keep you guys posted.

Has anyone ever seen a deflector like that for a 1996 speedster?
