    I had these on my 93 bronco (well. Metal ones). God I feel old.

    They aren't just for smokers. They really keep the rain out. You can have your windows down almost 1/4 of the way.

    Oh I agree! Just never saw the use for these.....just something else to clean. But I know smokers like them.

    I have it for rain and I an have my windows down, and also so i can leave my windows cracked especially in the summer (az afterall) without making it blatantly obvious to the passerby they're cracked without further inspection. Plus I think it kinda gives the truck a slightly beefer look. Never smoked, never will.

    Yea definitely not just for smokers. Just put a set on mine a couple weeks ago. Had them on a previous vehicle before too. Nice to keep them cracked during the day when I'm in work and to let some air in while it's raining. Also cuts down on wind noise too on the highway.
