I've never been a fan of these, ever. IMO it's just more clutter added to the car.

Yes and no - the previous owner had some on my car, except the drivers side was gone when I bought it and the passenger side had a chunk missing. So I removed that one, never did get the glue completely off.

But for practicality, they're nice in the summer so you can leave the windows cracked, keeping the car from getting so hot. Secondly, when I was smoking it made it easier to still get the smoke outside the car without soaking the seats in a rainstorm. Thought about getting them for the KIA for that reason, the cloth seats were always getting wet.

Putting the Weathertech in-channel deflectors on my car was one of the most satisfying additions I've made to it. As previously mentioned you can leave the windows down a little during hot weather to keep the interior cooler and they keep the interior dry on rainy days when the window is open.

I had a set on my blazer years ago and liked them a lot. I like that you can have the windows down a bit in the rain so the windows dont fog up.

I agree, I think they they give a nice look! Coincidentally I actually ordered a pair yesterday,was a 3m tape one that he was considering, found this thread today and cancelled my order immediately and got the slightly more expensive but in track ones from Weather Tech!

If you want to wait a week for me to get them Joey I can post some pictures of them on my Monte so you know exactly what to expect!

I drive with my windows down on the highway, these things are so snug they aren't going to fly out. I could see maybe a 4-door car coming loose, but on our windows, they don't budge.

I picked mine up for $50, about 4 years ago.
