Why Choose HAIBAK T5 Window Wind Deflectors?
Our VW T5 wind deflectors are manufactured using durable 2.55mm automotive-grade acrylic for long-lasting performance and a factory-style appearance. Unlike cheaper universal alternatives, HAIBAK wind deflectors are precision engineered specifically for VW Transporter T5, T6 and T6.1 vans.
Quick Benefits
-
Reduced Wind Turbulence
The aerodynamic design helps deflect airflow away from open windows, reducing wind buffeting and turbulence inside the cabin. Enjoy a quieter, more comfortable driving experience whether you're navigating city streets or travelling at motorway speeds.
-
Less Rain Entering the Cabin
Drive with your windows slightly open even during wet weather. These wind deflectors create a protective barrier that helps prevent rain from entering the vehicle, allowing fresh air circulation while keeping your interior drier and more comfortable. -
Improved Airflow While Driving
Promote natural ventilation throughout your vehicle by allowing fresh air to enter without excessive wind disturbance. This helps reduce stuffiness, improve cabin comfort and minimize condensation build-up during everyday driving.

VW T5 Window Wind Deflector Installation Guide
Installation time: 10–15 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
You'll Need
Left & right wind deflectors
4 retaining clips (if supplied)
Microfibre cloth
Glass cleaner
Plastic trim tool (optional)
#Step 1:
Check the Deflectors
Make sure you have a left and right deflector.
Hold each one against the correct window before fitting.
The curved end should point towards the wing mirror.
#Step 2:
Clean the Window Channel
Fully lower the window.
Clean inside the rubber window channel using glass cleaner.
Make sure it is clean and completely dry.
#Step 3:
Fit the Deflector
Start at the front of the window (nearest the wing mirror).
Push the front edge into the rubber channel.
Gently flex the deflector and work the rest into the channel using your fingers.
Make sure it sits fully inside the rubber seal all the way along.
Tip: Don't force it. The deflector should flex slightly but bending it too much may cause damage.
#Step 4:
Fit the Retaining Clips
Slide the clips between the deflector and the rubber seal.
Fit one near the front and one near the rear of each deflector.
Make sure they are securely in place.
#Step 5:
Close the Window
Close the window slowly using short presses.
Do not use the one-touch auto close function.
If needed, gently pull the deflector outwards while the window closes.
The first time may feel tight — this is normal.
#Step 6:
Leave the Windows Closed
Keep both windows fully closed for 24 hours.
This allows the rubber seal to mold around the deflectors for the best fit.
#Step 7:
Check Everything
After 24 hours:
- Open and close the windows a few times.
- Check the deflectors are secure.
- Listen for any unusual rattles or wind noise.
Troubleshooting
Window won't stay closed
- Close it using short button presses instead of one-touch.
- Leave it closed overnight and try again.
Deflector comes loose
- Push it fully back into the rubber channel.
- Check it is seated correctly along the entire window.
Installing in cold weather
- Warm the deflectors indoors before fitting to make them easier to install.
