Thanks guys for the info and link


Has anyone had this problem? Those kinda things make me nervous b/c I hate creating new problems...I suppose they are removable though if it comes down to it?

 

I've only had mine since X-mas, so I dunno about long term effects. Yes they are removable. Mine are from WeatherTech and don't have any 3M tape so removal would be fairly easy.

 

Awesome, thanks a lot amigo

 

Yep. Just doing my portions. :D

 

I've had mines for almost a year, they're the inchannel ones. i dont know if i installed them wrong but i have a small gap of the 3m tape showing on both the driver side and passenger side(hardly noticable). the tape is on there strong but i think you should be able to remove it with enough effort.
Just follow the instructions the visors come with and roll the window up and down or w/e. When i first had it installed, the auto roll up for the windows didnt work all the time, but once its been sitting in there for a while the windows should work normally.

 

After just a few days, my auto up works just fine...well, it slows down just a tad at the top.

 

^^That's all I was trying to say about them. That small added load may cause gaps down the road, but I haven't heard of anything with the tC with these. Just past experience with cars with power windows and those without. Just seems to add a bit more drag on the actuator and the window lift motor.

 

Yeah it makes sense. I hope I don't have problems down the road. I'm willing to take that risk though, seeing as how the other type (non-inchannel) look kinda weird and don't work with the B-pillar appliques.

 

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend anything other than inchannel either. Funny huh? My dad had a set of out stick ones on his S-10 and one flew off about 3 weeks after he put them on when he was on the highway. Luckily it didn't hit another car but he came home and said f**k that and took the other off. I had the inchannel in my 96 Ranger, manual windows, and they've been on from the 2nd day I had that truck. No problems with that one

 

No, it's good to make sure other members are aware of potential problems that may arise from using them.

 

Yeah, just lookin' out Thanks Capn'

 

Right back atcha. :D

 

I like those visors, but just too much for me to afford. Anything less expensive? I only want the in-channel kind, not the kind with tape.

 

in channel ones i got were about 40 bucks, they're called wade, and it uses tape, are there ones that dont use tape?

 

yea, check out that link above to weathertech

 

question......on sparks toyota they sell the vent visors too but it doesn't state if they use tape or not.

Here's the link http://www.trdsparks.com/displaypart...6&parts_id=684

It says it only cost $37.50

 

Judging by the pic thet have (even though it's not a tC) it looks like they require tape, they do not appear to be in-channel.

 

hmm, nice pick-up there. I'll send them a pm and see what he says. Hopefully they are in-channel and no tape

 

you're right. Ken just responded to my e-mail and told me that they are tinted but use 3M tape..BUMMER

 

There are these on ebay:
