Finally received my heko wind deflectors. Jimnyz here on the forum did let me know of place that ships to South Africa.

Very well packaged... !! They use uk ebay but are in latvia.

I had similar ones on my old gen3. They fit inside window and is super slim line and front go down all the way to the bottom

Must be the smallest instruction guide ever that i saw. Inch and half by inch and half.



Heko wind deflectors


Front all way down


Now that is slim fit






From inside out



Sorry for dust and finger marks. Only saw it after uploading pictures.

I am pretty impressed with the heavy duty stuff on the Jimny!

Made a little plug for my winch bar to close off. Consist of short section thflushat go into tube and a front lip.






The decorative little clip a bit off centre.
Oh well..!
Here the plug is all the way pushed in with rubber flush against steel

Sick and tired of companies not wanting small jobs in South Africa where it seems that business is so good they look down at odd jobs. Boggles my mind.

Got myself a tig welding machine that also do alluminium.

Huge learning curve. My friend who can tig will spend a few evenings teaching.

Watch this space for a few upcomming projects.
