Been looking for some for the Saloon but can't seem to find any.

However, used Heko on all of my other cars and never had any issues with them. Would only buy Heko deflectors. Any ones I've had fit in the same channel that the window goes up and down in. They have two sticky areas, and then you use two clips so push up in the channel which secures them in place.

I think for 25 quid posted from fleabay, they are worth seeing what they are like

They're great , just got to know them .

The bottom of the double sided sticky if showing below the window channel rubber will turn opaque , not attractive.

Clean off sticky area with white spirit and refit with 2 extra clips .

Had them on my car for about 3 months then got bored of them, clips wouldn't fit into the channel where the deflector actually goes so fitted without them and just with the sticky tape on then, worked fine for the duration just that I got bored of them

Not the best of photos either I know

Hated mine A4 B6. Rears didn't fit properly and kept falling out. Don't precisely know what the point of them is, wind noise is considerable when windows are shut, and buffeting is pretty much the same when opened a crack. Mine are now in a corner of the shed covered in excess sticky tape in attempt to fix them in properly.

Audi make them for the saloon, I have them fitted to my S3.

I think they were around £70

No they won't I have a tint on my front windows and the deflectors haven't made a single mark on the tint

I thought it was illegal to have a light tint on the front windows?

Only if it exceeds a certain percentage. They must let through 70% light.

I read somewhere that the OEM windows let through ~72% light therefore anything you add will make it illegal, even a perceivable clear film is technically enough to put you under the 70% mark. Otherwise, I would have got mine tinted

Haven't taken any since I had them fitted, I will try to get some up at the weekend presuming the weather is good
