    Hey guys first post to the site.

    I’ve had my Tacoma for about four years just hit 200,000 miles and just started modding it. I’m looking to get some side window rain deflectors but I’m having trouble finding some good reviewed ones that are in-channel. Anyone got some good recommendations for some rain deflectors that aren’t ridiculously overpriced and don’t come scratched. I have a pre-runner double access cab V6. Was thinking about buying weather tech what do you guys think.

    I’ve had the same set of Weathertech for almost 15 years.
    They were in 2 different, I swapped them over when I traded for my current truck.
    I vote WeatherTech:thumbsup:

    I had some installed buy previous owner when I bought mine. I absolutely love them. Don't know the brand but you can leave windows cracked in the summer for the heat and not have to worry about any unexpected rain storms. If I would have known how great these things were I would have put them on all my previous vehicles

    I have weathertech as well. After researching, these were the best for my needs. Zero issues.

    I have had good luck with my EGR in channel. They are going on 10+ years strong. Fraction of the price of weathertech.

    On my 05, I have the Weathertech front and back. Passenger side front one had a tight fit, and started tearing my window tinting top corner
    Took them off and are now in a shelf!

    Look at the AVS brand as well. Lots of folks seem to like those too.

    But definitely stay in channel.

    The previous owner had installed Weathertech and are still holding great. I even have a rear passenger side that's cracked and still works fine. If I had to replace I'd go Weathertech again

    I bought avs low profile ones but my windows barely close and one of them bumps into the guard and won't close at all.
