Default Cigarette wind deflectors

I have an 89 cig top gun.

The wind deflectors flip up at approx 50mph. I have looked at some mid 90's models that have clips which you can use to keep the deflectors down.

Anyone know where to get them? How much would they cost? How would you install them?

You can usually find similar plastic clips at most hardware stores for pennies. Look in the screen aisle. Thats where i found mine.

The clear clips are actually mirror hangers. About 10 cents a piece!! You just screw them into the deck...but not too tight so they will be able to rotate when you want the deflectors up.

Ditto, on the pics. My Apache has three flip up windscreens that also like to flip up on their own when going over 40mph and they do so very abruptly if I forget to flip them up.

Thanks
