WeatherTech rain deflectors...03-08 Vibe

My son found a full set (front and rear doors) of WeatherTech rain deflectors that were never installed on his '05 Vibe. They are the dark tint version, and still in the plastic sleeves, so in new condition. Low profile type that attach in the window frame channel. You can see them on weathertech.com/pontiac/2005/vibe/side-window-deflectors/

He ordered them last December and was waiting for a mild day to install. In the mean time, his Vibe was rear ended by an inattentive driver on a rainy night on his way home. Not that much damage was done, just a crunched rear bumper, but after the hit, on the rest of his trip home the transmission started to pop out of 5th gear intermittently. After the bumper was fixed, he eventually lost 5th gear altogether and then a few weeks later, 4th gear started to do the same thing.

His Vibe was up past the 150,000 mile range, it had other mysterious issues (bought used to begin with) so he decided to trade it in. Fortunately he was able to get a decent deal on a 12,000 mile Ford Fiesta SES hatch with a manual transmission. Could find no manual Vibes for sale around our region that met the grade. He does miss the load capacity, but loves the constant 40-42 mpg that he's getting from the little Ford. I've driven it a couple of times, and it's really not bad.

Anyway, if anyone wants a full set of WeatherTech rain deflectors for an '03-'08 Vibe, his are for sale... $60.00 shipping included. They currently sell on WeatherTech site for $99.95

Thanks Blanco_Diablo... they are a good deal.

I've used the WeatherTech rain deflectors on several vehicles and have never had a problem with them. Really nice to be able to leave windows open a bit and not worry about rain getting in. Another thing that I totally like about the WeatherTechs is the fit... they are nearly flush compared to the stick on type.

My old '98 Frontier pickup has had a set installed since it was new, and they still look great after almost 16 years!!

Posted to the GenVibe Facebook page. Larry Hunt has re-registered, and said he will take them.
