Who has a bug deflector on there outlook? What is the best type/company to get a good bug deflector. I have heard some have problems breaking. Any ideas from the rest of the outlook owners.
Thanks

I usually buy from weathertech, their products are made in the USA, which means a lot to me, and they are quality.

In a another post. Someone mentioned that they had excessive noise with the weather tech brand. Have you had any problems with noise? Also how is the install with weathertech?
Thanks

I have the WeatherTech deflector. It works well and I've had no increase in noise. It is attached via heavy duty double sided tape which has held up well for 2 years and 40,000 miles. The rubbers stops for the hood also hold it in place when closed.

The GM OEM deflectors were mounted via tabs and rivets/screws and the tabs tended to break off. Admittedly, I do most of the maintenance on the Outlook myself so I am always careful and use the latch loop on the hood to pull it down. I'm sure if the deflector is tugged on when the hood is open enough time the tape will give. When it's closed it's very secure.
