I am thinking of getting some additional accessories and was wondering how difficult it is to install these on a 2012 Rogue.

1. Sun roof wind deflector
The install says no drilling. I though it would just be 3M tape like the bumper protector which I easily installed but it looks like there are some screws. Has anyone installed this before and how easy/difficult is it for an average person?

2. Chrome cover for mirrors. These seem very straight forward, just 3M tape, but the ones that Nissan sells, will they work on Rogues with cameras in the mirrors? Just want to be sure because I saw some non Nissan after market ones on Ebay which say not for mirrors with cameras.

Thanks

1. Wind deflector. Got mine off eBay. Screws were too short. If you go this route you'll need two buddies and a six-pack. LOL!

2. Mirror covers will not fit, as you can see from these photos.

Do you have a link for the wind deflector you have?

Those mirror covers, are these the ones sold by Nissan or aftermarket?

Thanks for the info

I agree with Rogue One, those screws were short and I accidentally dropped the nut and it went somewhere in the door shaft. Had to locate another one, pain in the butt.

I just put one on my Altima and it came with 3M tape, that took about 2 minutes! Much easier. Hopefully it's just as safe, since it's not screwed down.

It is hard to tell from that picture but it does not look like they go all the way down to where the camera is.
Also, looking at the install instructions doesn't seem the camera would be affected:

Also, thanks for the info about the wind deflector. Seems like the one sold by the dealer is the same type and same price. I guess I ll buy from them and have them install. Should only be half hour of labor so about $50. Dont want to mess with screws :)
