How to Install WeatherTech Window Air Deflectors on a 2011 Nissan Pathfinder

Expert Reply:

Installation of the WeatherTech air deflectors, # WT82367, will be fairly straight forward on your 2011 Nissan Pathfinder. First, the WeatherTech logo faces out for the proper orientation. You will start by rolling down the windows a little and cleaning the top edge of the glass with mild soap and water. Rear deflectors that come with adhesive backing need to have the backing removed before installation.

With the windows down about half way, start at the forward most lower edge and press the deflector into the window channel. You will want the edge of the deflector to rest on the top of the outer window sill.

You will then bow the deflector out towards you by holding it firmly at each end and twisting the deflector outward. This will shorten the length to allow you to insert the rear edge in the window channel. Leave a gap about 1/4 to 1/2 inch between the top of the air deflector and the window channel.

With the deflector now held into place at the front and rear, go to the front and pull down and tuck in working front to back. After it is tucked in front to back you will carefully pull outward on the deflector to properly seat it.

For the rear deflectors, slide the deflector upward into place and then gently pull outward to seat the deflector. Once all of the deflectors are seating properly, carefully and slowly raise and lower the windows 5 times.
