Ive got a genuine set. They owe me $80 (I bought from Japan), so am happy to sell for what they cost. Add postage to the top.

    I think he's refering to the larger ones that you see on say, an RVR.
    The rubbers one every FTO has..... atleast that I've seen.

    would be a bit tricky given the FTO are frameless glass windows.

      Just the stock rubber ones. I think they are more meant to be wind deflectors rather than actually keep rain off
