well the window deflectors, slide in to the window channel, and there is a clip that holds it at the bottom front by the mirror. when i slide them in, they're pretty tight in the channel, i don't feel as though they're going to fall out from riding down the road. they can be pulled out though, if your worried about thieft, they can pull the stick on ones of just as well. i think the in channel still look better, but to each his own!

I don't know if they changed the hood. I have an 02, and an 08. they are different. The ones I've been shipped have the tabs that attach on the outside edges, and also 2 tabs in the middle that would tuck under the hood like my wife's Escape. Only problem with that is there's a grille in the way because it's attached to the hood. I didn't want to break off the tabs, because then it would be rubbing on the chrome that surrounds the grille.

When I took mine off I had to loosen the grille a good bit to get the deflector out. The tabs did not wrap under in the center...and did not attach to anything (I am guessing that tightening down the grill after sliding the deflector in between kept it tight). The outer edges wrapped under and had 1 screw at each end.
Just seems weird that 2 different places sent you wrong deflectors... And I have to ask... but did you read the instructions...

I see...Thank you for explaining that. I thought I was losing my damn mind!! Yep, I'm going to skip it. I like the way it looks now. Thanks!!

yeah, it will fit, i got a satellite radio in my truck, the screws they sent with the kit were a little short so i went to the hardware store and got a couple more, a little longer to put it on. comes with 2 screws and 2 brackets, that hold it on in the front, but fairly easy to install, my screws were to short, so i had to make a trip to the store, but once i got back, it took about 10 minutes to do it. it looks reall good on there to.
