Bolt onto the door frame. Do you mean the double sided tape and sticking them onto the door above the window?

I have had the in-channel one's in both my trucks and have never had any problem with them flying out while going down the highway. I will stick to those sucky ventshade one's and let you guys pay quadruple what I will pay.

Then how do they attach? One side is glued to the visor and the other you pull a piece of plastic off to get to the side you stick it on with.

don't talk unless you know what you're talking about. the real ones use nothing but clips and screws.

honestly, id get the oem jdm for two reasons. 1 being theyll help with the "jdm look" and authenticity. 2 being that they do have clips and screws, and will hold better than 3m tape.

Honestly...theres a reaon we buy JDM used parts...its because some of us are Addicted. Its plain and simple.
