Welcome to the forums, dhinson. I assume you're talking about the deflectors that go above your side windows. I have the deflectors on my Ram pickup and the bride's Envoy, but since I own a XFire Roadster, there will be no deflectors on that.

I haven't seen but a few XFires on the road, but I sure have seen a lot of photos on XFires, and I've never seen a XFire with the deflectors.

I'm sure if they exist, someone here will let you know.

Never heard of them for the xfire. But then, I've never heard of putting them on a sports cars. More for trucks and sedans.

They are typically attached to the metal door frame above the window. Since there is no metal door frame above the window on the Crossfire....... the glass is the top of the door.... this is not possible.

If you put the deflector on the body, you would have to put down the window to open the door. If you put the deflector on the window, you could not open the window.

I have been thinking about this since the first time I drove mine in the rain. Opening the window just a little bit in the rain and your get soaked in a left hand drive car. The wipers push all the water to the drivers side. Since there is no drip rail, the water gets sucked into the car. I can open the right window and no water pours in.

I've been looking at some plastic drip rail that could be put on the body just above the door glass, but can't find exactly what I want.

Anybody else have an idea?
