Does anybody have or has seen the OEM Cadillac Exclusive Accessory VENT WINDOW EXTENSIONS????  They are polished stainless steel wind deflectors that slip/snap onto the outer edge of the two front windows.

With 55 views and no replies I’m guessing that this really is that rare of an OEM Accessory for 1959 Cadillac.........

I have seen the similar ones in the '61 Accessories Brochure, but have NEVER seen an actual car, even in junkyards, that had these.

Seems more Chevy-like...

I have a NOS set on my '60 convertible, and another NOS set still in the Cadillac blue/red/yellow package, purchased maybe 25 years ago. (Not for sale.)
When the vent window is closed, the extension blends in very well with the post between vent window and door window.
As far as being functional, I am not so sure. But they LOOK good!

Thanks. I have an NOS set also in a pristine package with instructions but have never seen them on any car nor ever mentioned on this site. It’s odd that they were an OEM Accessory yet not shown in the Accessory Catalog.
