Default InChannel Ventvisors...catching??

I installed my InChannel Ventvisors the other day and came to find that after allowing them to sit for a while, my initial attempt to roll down the window resulted in a "click" noise....i looked at the corner of the window beside my head.....and the visor wasn't stuck to the channel....it was right in the way of the window....anyone else have this problem??? it keeps me from being able to use auto-up....... :?:

I have Wade deflectors after the installation, which involves lowering and raising several time to seat properly, you leave the windows up for 3 days. This allows the 3m adhesive to set well. Did you do this?

Mine worked fine.

Good Luck! If it doesn't work buy some of that 3m tape, redo the tape on your deflectors and reapply run the window up a down a couple of time to set and then close windows and leave closed for 3 days. I hope this works for you.

that is not a stupid question!
if you looked at the link, the window vents have tape on them.
any time there is tape involved you should clean the surface with alcohol...

^^I have never seen them on a tC, I would actually like to know too, they seem to be cheaper than the weathertechs. If they are like the truck ones I saw pics of then yes they should go to the mirrors.
