Default Wind deflector installed.

Install a wind deflector. No more cold wind through the back. Can I also drive open at lower temperatures.

Looks good. Is that aftermarket or OEM? Deflector in pic is adapted OEM from wife's XJ8 that got totaled.

92/93 XJS,

Jaguar didn't make a deflector for the XJS. All the ones available are aftermarket. There are a couple of companies making them with a revised version now available which better fits the space between the front and rear seats. That's the one that Keesh has pictured above

I have an early one made about 20 years ago. The fixing brackets on the early ones were always a bit of a nuisance. The mount brackets on the one pictured by Keesh seem a simpler installation.
