I hear ye, $75 can be expensive but it sounds like it is worth the $30 upgrade though coming from the members with them. Ordered mine yesterday should have them end of next week.

very nice Chibi gotta agree the inchannel ones are much smoother looking and that's what I'll get for my Monte when I can afford it lol. My trucks getting the cheap stick on ones.

Hey Joey! I am not sure if you were still thinking about getting the in-channel weather tech weather strips or going with the 3m tape ones. I ordered the weather tech ones and received them on Friday, just got them in this morning. They are made of good quality and are solid, ship with instructions on how to install them although it is fairly easy. The strips themselves aren't very bulky, meaning they don't have an L shaped bulge ( --, ) they are more narrow and kind of slant down so it will still give your car a sleek look. That is one benefit over the taped ones I have seen, taped ones have to go on outside of car so look thick and bulky, these ones are more subtle. Took me like 2 minutes tops to install. I am overall satisfied with them and would definitely suggest getting them! Let me know if you want pictures of what they look like on my Monte.

I really like mine, they definitely come in handy! I find myself taking mine off and putting them back on constantly lol and that's the best part about them, you can take them off whenever you want! they're also not as bulky looking as the stick-ons
Here's a pic of mine from a little trip we took to Tennessee a few weeks ago to pick up that Yukon in the background... It was raining for quite a while from talahassee throughout Alabama. Drove for a few hours with the windows down, a little chilly but it felt nice and no foggy windows! haha

As you can tell, it is very subtle when looking at them! Doesn't bulk out almost at all. They are pretty durable and takes 10-15 seconds to install - they can also be removed whenever you want. That is pretty nice when trying to get a real good car wash for your Monte,top of window that is protected won't still be dirty! I have used them for about a week now and can say that I am thoroughly pleased with them!

PS ( Taz, a suggestion - Ever thought of looking into having a "Spoiler" section that will hide everything inside unless clicked upon and then it will reveal it? I have seen it in a lot of forums and helps tremendously when you have multiple large pictures like this one! Just a thought! )
