A couple of years ago people around here were getting their window visors from a guy named Anthony at MPVClub. Can't remember his username over there but you could find info around here with a search. Problem is he started sending people visors for the Mazda3, or maybe Protege5 and he didn't own up to his mistakes. His supplier is in Taiwan or something so I'm sure he didn't want to eat the cost of the incorrect orders (mine was one of them, want some mazda3 visors?).

The visors you find from these vendors, or on eBay for that matter are crap anyway (even if they look alright). Good news is that Mazda is now selling them as an official accessory. Pop into your Mazda dealer part's desk and order a set. Here in Canada they are steep though: $114, not installed. But in fairness they look wicked, and they are 5 times the product of any 3rd party vendor. I'm going to bite the bullet on them this week. Until weathertech comes out with something they are your best bet.

Best of luck!

Side Window Deflectors

I did pop into my local Mazda dealer and they say they cannot order the side deflectors for the Mazda 5. I don't see them as an accessory on any web site but I have posted a request to WeatherTech to consider offering them in the near future. Good Luck with that.
Anyway, the search continues. Thanks for your message.

yeah, I have to say they are pricey here in Canada, but available at Mazda dealers. I will most likely be ordering a set in next few weeks

Please let me know how they work out for you when you get your side deflectors. I'm especiall interested in the type that fit in the window channel. I had them on my previouse vehicle and found them to be very useful. I'm not too far from Toronto and could drive up to your dealer and pick them up. Can you give me the dealer info?
Thanks

Thanks man, but I just bought them today at Avante, the gave me a discount. I paid $91 for it. Really good quality, nothing like crappy tire items (2thumbs)

I bought my window deflectors off of EBay last March. So far so good. I was worried they would fall off either during the heat of the summer or the cold of the winter, but they have held up surprisingly well. I think I paid about $30 for them.

I don't want to bash ebay visors, but the ones from mazda dealer are way better quality. Even though I paid $91 I think it is worth it

Hi Dima Rus
I did contact the dealership in Ontario and they do stock both the window side vents and the hood deflector. I forgot to ask the parts manager if the vents fit in the track or were the tape stick on the outside type. When you installed your window vents did you fit them inside the upper window track?
Thanks for the lead. I'll look for your reply.

not 100% on what you mean by that, but those visors use 3M tape and go right on top of the door
