Rain guards

Nomad Life Wiki

Rain guards (also called rain protectors, rain blades, wind deflectors, or window deflectors) are custom fit window covers designed to allow your window to be opened slightly without letting rain in. This is very beneficial for ventilation in all weather. They also increase stealth, since you can have windows cracked open while parked without people noticing.

This will keep bugs out of your vehicle while allowing air flow.More …
