No not at all.. take them out close and reset windows level, reinsert them... see if that helps?

I've got climair deflectors and love them, no noticeable noise, the only downside is that they do have a little screw to attach to the door putting some people off. I've tried Dubflectors but they effected the operation of the electric windows ie they sometimes wouldn't close properly. I also have bought the self adhesive vw versions but never fitted them as in my opinion didn't look too good in the flesh.

Mine did and I did ditch them, took them back to TPS (when you could buy there) and asked to swap them for the T5 version which stick on the outside, there is no name on those but they were genuine VW supply. TPS said they didn't fit a T6 but that's rubbish, I guess VW don't want to sell the T5 version for a T^ because they may make the CD figures a fraction worse.

thanks fish I was thinking of getting heko one's I will give them a try
I have Heko's on my T6 where this weekend the drivers side fell out when opening the window fully.
The botton double sided tape wasn't sticky at all.
Will attemp to refit when new (Gorilla) double side tape has arrives to see if this'll work.
Been fitted for near on a year with no problem (and to my eye theu look great) till this weekend?
Anyone else had any problems with them staying in place?

I bought additional clips and also changed the tape, but I used 3M tape as felt it was slightly thicker and gave more grab potential.
Mine fell out one day after washing so I stretched the clips slightly and refitted them no problems since
Where did you purchase additional clips please @Fish?
I seem to have a bit of wind noise....Is there a procedure for resetting windows?
I don’t know about the clips, but as for resetting the window auto-close...
Mirrors wont auto fold until you reset the one touch window setting
Take window fully down and keep hold of the down button for a few extra seconds then take window fully up and keep hold of the button for few extra seconds, this resets the top and bottom limits of the windows and will give you one touch opening and closing back and in turn the mirrors should start working again
Ohh Climair, how my van is better now you're there,
I was worried that the need to drill, would be too bitter an install pill,
In truth it could not have been any easier, and now my van is pleasantly breezier,
Without the rain (what a pain) getting into the cab, ohh Climair you are so fab.
But seriously, what a great product. Installed in 10 mins, no faff, no wind noise, no fouling the electric windows, look great and now I can have the windows open in the rain!

Don’t give up your day job.
Good to hear your verdict though, think I might bin my Heko’s.
Very few great artists are appreciated within their lifetime. I confidently predict kids studying that verse in 50 years or so.....
got to admit, they seem to fit and stay put far better than the hekos
my last hekos lasted 3 days before the drivers side came away and flew across the m5!
i didnt drill for the climair, i used a red hot needle to pilot the tiny hole required, as i have done that before and it raises a tiny bead of plastic on extraction, which, if it goes wrong, can be smoothed over with a red hot tiny flat end screwdriver
always learnt to " move material, rather than remove if possible " as as youngster
