What types of weather shields does Offroad Industries stock?

We stock a broad range of weather shields with various profile types for all of Australia’s most popular truck models. If you want something sleek and more minimalist, consider the low-profile options. They’ll still deliver plenty of protection from the elements, all while sitting more flush against your truck’s door frame. When it comes to your vehicle, no matter whether you drive a RAM, Chevrolet, Ford or Toyota, we have a broad selection of compatible weather shields. 

AVS weather shields, along with their bonnet protectors, are an exceptional choice. They’re hard-wearing, resilient, and can handle all the conditions that off-roading churns up. They also add an element of UV protection, thanks to their innovative materials. This design also means they’re longer lasting and capable of withstanding impact from flying debris and the sun, meaning they’re less likely to crack and degrade as quickly as those without built-in UV protection. 

Are your weather shields compatible with 4WDs and utes in Australia?

Yes, along with the top makes that Australian drivers choose time and time again, we have weather shields for everything from the Ford F150 and Toyota Tundra to the Chevrolet Silverado and RAM 1500. If you’re looking for weather shields that are compatible with your truck, you can filter the make on this page and then check the product specifications to ensure you’re choosing the right ones for your model and year. 

How can weather shields improve my driving experience?

No matter whether you’re driving through the glaring sun or heading into a higher altitude with icy wind, weather shields enhance every trip you take. By allowing fresh air into the cab, it not only makes it easier to cool things down on a hot day, but it’ll also help prevent fogging when it’s cold outside. This keeps you comfortable, makes it easier on your truck’s defogging or air conditioning system, and you’re sheltered from the rain and sun more than you would be without weather shields. 

What are the benefits of using slimline weather shields?

Slimline weather shields are ideal for truck owners who want the protection and resilience that weather shields offer without the bulkiness that some standard models have. They have a lower profile than standard weather shields, giving you extra protection with the windows down without adding too much elevation that can get caught or snagged when you’re in a tight spot off-roading. 

Are the weather shields at Offroad Industries UV-resistant?

Yes - they’re made from hard-wearing, impact-resistant acrylic for those tough journeys, but they also have UV resistance built in. The intense sun we get in Australia, even on cloudy days, not only adds glare but also actively degrades plastic. When you choose AVS shields, they’re capable of withstanding intense light and UV rays, meaning they’re not going to crack, warp or degrade as quickly as those without would. 

You’ll get far more life out of them as a result, and the added benefit to this is that you’ll also be more shielded from the light thanks to their smoky finish, giving you a more comfortable drive that’s safer, too. 

How do I choose the right size of weather shields for my vehicle?

If you’re looking for the right size, start by looking for the make of the vehicle you’re driving. From there, check the different models. Some years of the same model have variable sizing, so checking the product specifications on the page is important to ensure that snug and secure fit you’re looking for. 

What’s the difference between adhesive and clip-on weather shields?

Both adhesive and clip-on weather shields can be effective, though you may have a personal preference depending on your vehicle and the conditions you’re driving in. Generally speaking, we prefer clip-on methods. Using adhesives makes for easier installation and removal if you want to change them. However, sometimes this can leave a residue when you take them off.

For the most secure fit that won’t leave sticky residue or degrade as quickly in water or extreme temperatures, we recommend opting to clip them on. You can still achieve this at home, or you can get the job done for you instead with one of our ORI authorised installers.
