Rear Window Vents? Whatever They're Called, Can You Get These For

[Arwing 3 1 Cars]

Not sure what these items are even called, which makes it harder to search for them. But can you get these rear window vent things for the 205?

I see them on Minis a lot. Pictured on a Mitsubishi Starion below.

They're called rear window louvres but I've never seen a 205 one.

Thanks for the reply. At least now i know the proper name (Louvred panels/windows) i can search for some. Plenty of the older cars have them but haven't come across any on a 205 yet.... Anyone else think these would look good or am i alone on this one?

would be good if someone could photoshop that one up, I bet it would look kinda crazy.....

They're like the red reflective panels that go between the rear lights, a period accessory that you either love or hate. I always wanted one for my Citroen CX turbo, they were made for them but I could never find one.

I've been told they were made by a company called Autoplas who are still in business but not making louvres any more. http://www.ap-auto.co.uk/

It's a "no" from me.

Some things are best left in the early 80's!

It would be like putting a brown vinyl roof on a 205 GTI. Just because it looked ok on an Austin Allegro doesn't mean it suits a 205!!

Ermm i'll second that idea tom but only because it isn't in the 'Improve and modify your peugeot 205' book that I just got, I mean if it isn't good enough for that book its a serious damage to street forum cred

They can look good on some cars...and I would say any hatchback lile the 205 aren't included in my opinion.
