Default bug deflectors

I had a STAMPEDE brand bug deflector and it caused a lot of wind noise. What brands have been used that did not cause this? I have a 2005 2x cab. Never had a problem on my 2000. I prefer the low profile type. Replaced with a WEATHERTECH deflector but still get somewhat of a "wind' vibration which is not there if no deflector was in place. I guess I have to live with it. Anyone have this problem??

I brought the STAMPEDE brand back to where I bought it and they gave me credit towards a WEATHTECH one. So far so good.

I picked up an AVS deflector. It comes around the corners of the headlights and you don't have to stick anything to the surface of the vehicle, which was important to me. I don't notice any real wind noise...

I put on a WEATHERTECH shield and I still have a little "wind" noise. No noise when I have no shield in place.. I might just have to live with it. Thanks for all input..

I too have the weathertech bug deflector and it does make some wind noise. My towing mirrors make wind noise so I am used to it. That is why you have volume control on your stereo.
