Weather Tec bug deflector

Just FYI that if anyone tries to get a weather Tec bug deflector from a dealer or then directly there is some confusion.

I tried getting one from a local truck shop for my 2021 and he said not available. I call weather Tec twice and they say not available.

I think really this is crazy. So I get a third person on the phone more knowledgeable and he says no problem. Just say you have a 2020 model year no changes which is true.

Apparently weather tech systems don’t show inventory under 2021 model but they do for 2020, 2019 etal. So it’s there issues. It’s the same part number for those model years 50216

Just thought I would share to save anyone the same hassle

 

This is common with quite a few aftermarket parts. It takes time for them to update their database and/or validate that it will indeed still work with the latest model, and then the vendors selling the parts have to update their stuff too. Even now for some things I've had to list my 2019 as a 2017 to get stuff that I know will fit to show as available to order.

 

Yep. Just recently got/installed the WT 50216 Stone & Bug Deflector (and the WT 82531 Side Window Deflectors) for my '21. Perfect fit, super easy, no problem (except for the obnoxious WT stickers on the 2 front window deflectors, which I had to spend some time removing).

 

Miami Mark,

What did you use to remove the weather Tec logo sticker on the bug deflector? I am wondering if it would be easier to try to remove prior to putting on vehicle

 

Removing the sticker on the Bug Deflector was easy... I just used a little Goo Gone and a PLASTIC scraper (no blade, metal, razor) and it was off in seconds. Now, removing those 2 WT stickers from the Side Window Deflectors, that was an annoyance.

 

Thanks Mark those are some good tips!
