W166 specific bug deflector
For some time now I have been looking for a model specific bug deflector. I'm not sure whether they do any good but I believe they do help and not just for bugs. I recently replaced the windshield and anything that will keep flying rocks away from it will be good but I simply can't find a type specific option. I can find them for W164 but nothing for W166. I even used ChatGPT which gave me a bunch of useless options but eventually admitted that it simply couldn't find anything and not just in Canada, it couldn't find anything in North America. So I'm appealing to the hive mind - has anyone found something that fits?

Update:
2 weeks post order and nothing - no tracking, no shipping details - nothing. I went back to their website and asked what was happening. A day later I got a response "What is your address?" Obviously they already had that but I gave it to them again and repeated my questions about order progress. A few days later I got a response indicating that they were looking for the part. So right now I don't know if I will ever receive anything. They currently claim they will ship "the end of next week". I'm not sure why its so difficult to find a model specific wind deflector for a W166 but evidently that problem is not limited to North America. I assume that - if I finally do receive something - it will be some generic piece of **** that won't fit anyway.
