    That's what I installed today. I will say AVS has a good product. Maybe the interference I ran into when I installed them was something particular to my Tacoma.

    Leave it to me to run into trouble with a basic installation. They fit fine, it wasn't apparent they'd interfere with the window until closing them. I like them though, I've been leaving the windows open a bit when parked, maybe keeping the truck from getting quite as hot. Also was nice having the windows like that in the rain when air conditioning wasn't needed.

    When I installed my AVS.....I bent about 3-4 pieces of cardboard over the window then closed them like that overnight. Gives a perfect tight seal and you never have any interference at all. I dont remember if that was on the AVS instructions or I saw that on youtube?

    I don't recall that being on the instructions, so like other times probably good information on Youtube. I'm thinking the bottom part of the channel that the visor adheres to may have become slightly misshapen over time on mine. It is 15 years old.

    I was somewhat concerned about wind noise, especially on the highway, but none was noted.
