Default Weather-tech Window Visors

yes, i am a smoker and plus i dont have A/C in my car, so it helps the windows not get foggy w/o me getting drenched...

The question I have is, do the weather-techs just tape onto your car/window molding, or does it clip in like the JDM Honda ones?

thanks y0

they just clip in. if they were to utilize double-stick tape, it won't last one season.

Very easy to install. Open your door/window and slide them right in there. Took me less then 5 minutes and they look great!

i have the jdm ones and there a hassle to put them in. you gotta cut the weather strips to fit the clips in.

Damn that sucks. Now not only did I save 100 bucks. I also saved a lot of work and ripped/fudged up weather stripping.

Yea. Considering you prolly paid 100+ for your "JDM" window visors.

They will fit fine. Just push them into the little window seal thing and your window will still be able to move up and down with no problem.

the only problems i got with mines is that the windows close alittle slower when the glass touches the weather-techs.
also it dug into the weatherstrip at the bottum of the glass and the metal is exposed, but no biggie

My passenger side goes up a little slower but I think thats because of the motor going bad.

I just got the lighter ones. I don't have tint so it didn't matter to me.
