Manufactured using laser-cut precision techniques and finished with a durable anodised coating, this air deflector offers improved longevity and corrosion resistance compared to aging original components. It is an ideal solution for restoring proper sunroof function and comfort in early air-cooled 911 models.

What the Sunroof Air Deflector Does

This component:

• Redirects airflow over the open sunroof
• Reduces wind noise and cabin buffeting
• Improves comfort during open-roof driving
• Automatically deploys when the sunroof opens
• Helps stabilise airflow at motorway speeds
• Maintains correct sunroof system operation

A correctly functioning air deflector is essential for enjoyable sunroof use in classic Porsche 911s.

Why Sunroof Air Deflectors Fail

Over time, air deflectors can fail due to:

• Metal fatigue from repeated movement
  
• Corrosion, especially on untreated original parts
  
• Distortion or bending, reducing airflow control
  
• Broken mounting points or weakened springs
• Age-related wear, particularly on early vehicles
  
• Previous poor-quality repairs or replacements

A failed deflector often results in excessive wind noise, vibration or incomplete sunroof deployment.

Why You Should Replace a Worn Air Deflector

Replacing the sunroof air deflector restores:

• Quiet, stable airflow when the sunroof is open
• Original driving comfort at higher speeds
• Correct sunroof operation and alignment
• Improved durability with laser-cut anodised construction
• Protection against further wear to sunroof mechanisms
• Authentic appearance for classic Porsche restoration projects

This part is suitable for both left and right sides, simplifying installation and inventory management.
