    Just some 35% tint to match the rears and some 285/70/17 Falkens…
    In Ohio, like most states, leaving your vehicle running while unattended is illegal. In addition, I've never bought an electric motor for the windows for a Toyota Tacoma or any of the other 20-plus vehicles I've owned. But to each their own...

    I've traveled around 70 MPH with them on, and noticed no difference whatsoever than before without them. I pay attention to that sort of stuff, too...

    I'm betting he meant parked like you go to work, and the truck sits outside, parked, for 8-10 hours. Not parked like, you start the car and wait for it to cool/warm up before getting in and driving away.

    Thanks for the review OP. Just curious do these require 3m tape to hold them up in the channel?

    Corey I cannot find them for our access cabs. I called AutoAccessoriesGarage.com and it seems like all the online stores just have them in 4 pieces for crew cabs. Darn things would be high just to use the front pair and throw the back pair away.

    No problem! Yes, 3m tape is exactly what holds them in the channel. And to the others, yes, these produce a significant increased wind noise, but not an unbearable one. I love mine.

    I'm getting a set next week. Weather Tech still doesn't have them out yet, no time line either. I'm tired of waiting.

    I've been waiting for the WT's also. I was told they were still about 4 months out, testing in Germany.

    I too got tired of waiting for WT's. I got AVS, tape on low profile. That's all I could find, lifetime warranty on product & install.

    I have the in channel low pros and the rears are too thin. Anything above 50 with the windows down or cracked they flop all over. Windows have to be all the way up on the highway. Fronts are fine though.

    Glad I got the stick one. They seem to be on pretty good. I paid $20 for install.

    okay so I have a set of OE window visors on my honda CRV and they're secured with brackets and tape. They don't sit in the window channels so there's not hitting on the window. Does anyone know if there's a company out there that makes ones like that? I'm not a huge fan of only stick ons or in channel visors
