    Greetings--long time lurker, first time poster. I recently purchased some WeatherTech in-channel vent visors for my 2017 double cab. The front fit great but the rear ones seem suspect to me. I do not feel that they are very secure and fly off at highway speeds or when going through a carwash.

    Does anyone have any experience with these? Maybe I'm just a goon and screwed up the installation.

    Thanks.

    None so far
    I installed them on my 2017 and so far 3 1/2 months no problem. If they are in channel and the window is up there is very little chance for them to come off.

    I have them on my Titan rear windows of the crew cab. They had a strip of 2 sided tape on the top, once the window has held it in place for a bit,they're pretty secure. I have hit it with everything including crazy ALberta winds at highway speeds.

    I've had a set for my 14 Tacoma DCSB for a while now. I attempted to install the front drivers side but, when I started the "seating process" by repeatedly putting the window up then down. I freaked out, because I felt like the motor was straining too much. Anyone else become very nervous about this and the possibility of scratching the top edge of the glass as well?
