Stick with WeatherTech.

2013 Hyundai Sonata | WeatherTech Side Window Deflectors, Vents, Rain Guards, Wind Deflectors | WeatherTech.com

They mount in the channel so there is no adhesive to fail and cause problems later. I have them and they match the body design nicely not sticking out like Dumbo ears. I like the dark color to.

Are these ever on sale?

$100 seems a bit high.

I've had the Weather Tech's on my cah since August. The driver's window still clicks the deflector when it goes up, but I'm fine with that. I could not figure out how the clips go on the rears so I left them off. The passenger side rear flew off somewhere on the highway when I was driving with the windows open. I called the company and they sent two new rears at no charge, even though I told the girl it was my fault.

Needless to say I'm very happy with the product and the company.

I just bought a set of OEM deflectors off eBay, they're made by Mobis and cost about $52. They being shipped from Korea.

Anyone have them and can comment on the quality?

I have the WeatherTech Dark Smoke Window Deflectors on my 2012 Sonata and love them. Installation was a snap. At first, because of the in channel design, the windows (particularly the driver side window) when raised in the auto mode, when they hit the deflector would come back down. That lasted a week. Now there is no problem.

I had those from ebay too but my sister in law broke it so I got "unbreakable" ones from ebay and they both look nice and I like them and both are mobis.

Don't judge the quality based on the fact that they broke...my wife side of the family tends to break things in unimaginable ways.

Price is right for 4 and if I have to do it again I'll go with these. Mine stick on the frame with tape.
