I have a set like that in my SO-42. They work fine and do not rattle, takes about a minute to install them and of course no holes necessary in your bus. Got them from a friend who had a few sets but have no idea where he got them.

Air deflectors, stainless steel, polished (pair) - Typ 2, 55>67
Part Number: AC0001
Deflects air onto driver and passenger from air duct in cab area. Attaches using factory mounting screw, so no drilling required. Manufactured in stainless steel and polished to a mirror finish .

These certainly are very easy to fit just using factory mounting screw and work great

I have these in my bus too....no rattles. I think I got them from the "nice rack" guy at the Fredricksburg Show a couple of years ago.

Nice bling, but from what I've read, not worth much more than an increased accessory count.

If you are tall the fixed angle vent things shoot right in your ear. I had some for one drive and gave them away.

Yes the clip on ones were from the nice rack guy aka single cab dave. I dont know if he makes them or just sells them. I didnt see them in his ads the last time I looked though.

Are those things really needed? You must spend most of your time driving below 30 mph. At any speed at all that would give you a permanent part in your hair or that swirly look that Justin Beiber used to sport.
The adjustable ones look like a nice quality piece of work other than those you might as well fold up some card board and use gaf tape to hold it in place. IMO. sorry.

Hotter here in the summer than most of California. I imagine the more southern states like Texas could be pretty brutal without some airflow down your between your back and the seat.
Me.... I'm searching for the heated seat thread.
