    I got mine from car accessories plus. They are £39.41 at the moment and are Citroen parts.

    I got them for the looks really but when I have the window down there's not as much noise. I suppose it would fix your problems.

    They are cheap enough so its worth a go.

        I must say that i buy wind deflectors for every car/van i have and they have always fitted very good without any problems - i always buy the Heko wind deflectors and i did the same before i even got our DS3 (as i was so excited lol) But on this occasion they are not a a good snug fit like they have always been in the past, even using the clips provided i have found the deflector on the drivers side as come out on more than one occasion already - they certainly do not fit as good as how the citreon ones look like they do... time to buy some dealer ones me thinks !

          Hmm mixed commens above as to whether they reduce or create more noise?

            They will help, but you cant remove the sound completely.
            The wind will always be there.

                  Nope.... her decision as she complains about the wind but does not like the look of the deflectors. So up to her as I'm not bothered either way.

                    I not only think the deflectors look good but you can have your windows down a couple of inches even when its raining to get a bit of cross wind into the car, i fitted ours the day we picked the car up so cannot really comment on wind noise regarding the DS3 - is it really that bad ?

                      Not that bad IMHO bit my lady suffers from migraines a lot which amplify the sound.

                                I do fancy the deflectors as the buffeting noise can be a right old thud at high speeds- and like keeping the window open

                                They do look a bit "Anoraky" tho don't they?
