    I've got the front windows only on my 1st Gen. The fit is perfect and they work great. Love having the windows cracked in rain. Highly recommend their products. Mine are the in-channel versions like you linked. I don't mind how they look, especially because I love what they do. You can keep windows cracked and nobody knows cause they're hidden.

    The 3rd gen ones fit great for me. Have had them on for more than a year.

    During a recent freeze, I made the mistake of lowering driver window (which was slightly frozen shut) and the front edge popped out. Stuck it back in, and it’s staying in so far. Might end up having to replace at some point though if it pops out again.

    If I do replace it, I’d go with weathertech, which is more expensive but doesn’t rely on adhesive. Weathertech one also looks slightly better imo.

    Great seeing everyone today! Brother loved the turnout, and impressed by how many cars actually show up. Speaking of which, at 1000 as we were leaving they were turning people away. So, the Cars and Coffee event moved from the Oasis because is was running out of room, and moved someplace that immediately ran out of room. Not a good sign. The constable was turning people away because the event lot was full, and their visitor parking was apparently full too.

    Suggestion for next month: we move t the very top corner of the lot and hold it by force. It’s a huge lot, and the fact that it filled up is nuts. There wasn’t anyone parked in that area either, unlike that stray BMW all by itself in the area we claimed this month.

    4ABBE3A7-D719-443F-8651-D15DF63D5DFB.jpg

    If anything, we all need to be sure to be there by 7 just to hold our corner. I’m also going to suggest to the show runners that they be there earlier - they couldn’t have looked any more disorganized if they’d tried. Hopefully they’ve learned some lessons after this month’s show.

    I like the idea of moving to the top corner.
    Interested and like minded people will be willing to walk up there. Hopefully dumb asses will be to lazy and will stay away.
