Did you find this independently from my post or you clicked my link? Happy if I helped
I've been 'watching' it for some time and thought it was finally time I got it - yesterday! Just hope we get plenty of good weather soon to make use of it. There were two genuine Audi deflectors on eBay just recently - one at £240 and the other at £220. The vertical section of the genuine items is narrower than the aftermarket, maybe that explains them not being as effective.

Im shocked how much these have gone up.I bought an unused one 5 years ago with it's original leatherette storage bag for £120.
The aftermarket ones were £65,i still have not used it as we're normally 3 up.

There is only one thing for it Mark, you will have to tell the wifey she has got to stay at home because you want to use the wind deflector

Wonder if you would escape unscathed

Just got delivery of the wind deflector today (I had to put DPD delivery back a couple of days). It's made by a company called 'Aperta' which are sold by a number of different sellers on eBay but beware that the prices vary quite a lot (I paid £148 incl. shipping). I can't attest as to its effectiveness yet but I can say the fit is spot on and literally took about 30 seconds to put in place and the quality looks excellent.
