Definitely in-channel.

I use dark ones. I stay away from in-channel since the set on my wife's Ford Explorer cause the driver side window to stick shut if you put it up too high. In their defense, they're not Weathertechs.

I've had mine for almost 3 years now. Definitely NEVER had a problem.

The only time I had to do something was when I drive on the highway with the windows down, sometimes I have to just put it back a little when I put the windows up. Not many times that has happened though.

I'm going to be grabbing a set of these too. When I bought my car it had one. Keyword one. Stick on one over the passenger side window, drivers side came off prior (left residue s*** all over). But it was dark and looked good.

Yup, forgot about the 'before' pictures. I'll snap a few later on if the dang snow and rain ever stop.

I recently got some in channel visors on eBay for a decent price. Going to replace my tape on ones someday soon.
