    Dunno, but I’ve read that the bonnet protectors can increase engine temps due to reduced or changed air flow

    Genuine Bonnet one I got. Was much the same as aftermarket in price. Ebay slim window shields, not quite and exact fit and they leak water when it rains.

    Got my weathershields at Autobarn. Clear, not tinted. Have been on for around 8 or 9 years now with no problems. TBH I'm surprised at how well they have stood up to narrow tracks etc. Says a lot for double sided tape. Good value I reckon. I'd get them again. No idea of the brand now - they were all Autobarn had for my car at the time. Only downside is that they make window cleaning a bit more awkward.
