vent visors

It's not right and it's not inside. Sounds/looks wrong. How about some help here?

vent visors

Postby avfrffemt on Sat Jul 28, 2007 9:47 pm

i bought a 2003 blazer 4x4 about 3 weeks ago and have been thinking about get some vent visor to put over the windows. i have found a set that fits in the channel instead on putting them on the outside, basically i am wondering if anyone has them and if its worth buying a set.

I've been planning to put them on mine and think I would prefer the "in channel" ones. I've seen too many of the outer ones that wouldn't stay put after a couple of years. Where did you find the in channel ones?

I've never had a problem w/ it falling off...Make sure on the 95 and up models you tuck the corner behind the mirror..

I have the the double side tape ones and they work great. I had the channel ones but they didnt stay in the channel and window wouldnt close tight.

I am using the in channel ones. Weathertech makes them.
No complaints.

I have or had till i pulled them off the ones that tape to the outside. I kept getting water to come in at the spot were it touches the mirror. I would rather have th inchannel ones. Also one of the back ones blew off in the carwash (i did get it back) so i decided to take them off and maybe get the other set in the future.

I've got the weathertech in-channel ones on all four doors on my 2000, i love em. They look great, and do cut down on the wind pouring into the front seat on the highway. Also let's you roll the windows down slightly and still keep the elements out.
