It is shown that, for heavy-ion projectiles with a cluster structure, effects due to projectile excitation generate a large effective spin-orbit interaction which can drastically alter the predictions for vector analyzing powers obtained from folding model spin-orbit potentials. Coupled-channels calculations of this effect for $^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ and $^{7}\mathrm{Li}$ scattering from $^{58}\mathrm{Ni}$ at ${E}_{\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.}\ensuremath{\sim}20$ MeV give a good account of experimental data.
