    I have never understoond why people say the in channel looks cleaner??? You have a plastic visor, a visible rubber strip above that and then paint.

    I think the stick on looks much bettter even though they are a little harder to install. I like that the stick on's hide the rubber weatherstripping to me this looks cleaner going from plastic visor to paint.

    I know most will not agree with me but thats my personal opinion.

    Weathertech FTW!

    my first set was the "in house brand" from performance products.
    while rolling down the highway, with all windows down, one of the rear vent went flying off the truck. all i heard was a sudden helicopter buzz and then the "smash" on the road

    bought weathertach visors (which i have had on 3 prior vehicles) and they have been in solid for a year now

    I've has Weathertech on a number of vehicles too.
    Great product.
    I also like the way the bottom is smooth to the end with no groove or line design like other companies.
