I don't think they'd blow off. They'd probably flip down if the wind did somehow knock them back. The 4 posts fit into the securing holes very snugly. Although the top of my deflector seems to move a little bit due to the wind at freeway speeds...

Definitely wait on eBay and see if someone is selling from Europe and anticipate the $50 for shipping across the Atlantic. The ones on Ebay right now are pretty expensive. I got mine for around $185 + shipping.

FYI: the OEM ones fold twice and are more compact. The non-OEMs look like they just fold once.

If you haven't picked one up yet, use this for a search: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...08-13&_sacat=0

Here's a used OEM one that's around the same price as what I paid for mine, except this one doesn't have the carrying case.

Have fun!
