Here is the detailed story of the process of remaking one of the most popular mods for the Spyder, Mongo's.
Using the large deflector template (generously posted by cyclehead) I have come up with a new design for a deflector. The same old goodies of yesteryear apply to this new design. They install with a wedge fit between the A-pillar plastic and the rubber window seal. Windows can be rolled up with deflectors installed and .118 inch high visibility scratch-resistant UV-protected acrylic will be utilized. The material is approved by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 205 for driver visibility and safety. To keep these looking beautiful, all visible edges will be laser cut and bending procedures will be preformed by myself. Every set is hand test fit and massaged as needed.
Chongos are currently being manufactured, remaining sets will be sold at $55 plus shipping.

Here is the current design in the passenger window.
Micro Chongos are now available for $40 shipped within the United States, Only 6 sets are available and are ready for immediate shipping.
These are the same great deflectors except they are smaller for more entry-exit room and have a distinct style of their own.

Here is the new "micro chongo," one might call them a mongo....
All Chongo's install and remove without modification to the vehicle and retain full functionality of your side windows. They are intended to sit just below the weatherstripping fold where your side windows exit. You can view through the acrylite to see the passenger side view mirror, the regular model extends past the side view mirror where the micro has the seam directly center.
Install
All new deflectors are labeled left and right for your convenience.
Chongo's are not Ambisexterous™. Meaning the left-side Chongo will not go on the right A-pillar and vise versa. If you are ever concerned about which Chongo you can holding, sit down in the drivers seat and hold it up to the pillar. Does the bottom-edge sit flat against the door? Your holding the correct side if it does. Using this method you can determine the top/bottom & left/right orientation.
To install liberally apply J-lube to the weatherstripping (just kidding). Slightly pry back on the A-pillar plastic lip and insert the forward edge near the final installation point. Hold the Chongo from the forward and rear edges and work it in as far as possible. After opening and closing the door several times to find out the installation distance, slowly lower it down till you are about an 3/4" from the door plastic. Adjust the position and repeatedly open and shut the door with the window up to verify installation. Clean with soap and water!
