So i ordered Weathertech Vents for my car. I put them in today and i have a problem. On my right window when i push the automatic return button it just snags on the vent and goes down (safety thingy). Is this always going to be like this, or what?

 

Same thing happans to me on the passanger side with the avs vents. I guess its normal i got used to holding the up switch.

 

ahh damn. Oh wells. I got to say the visors look sick. Next week im going to tint my front windows and i bet it will look even better.

 

that's odd... i don't have that problem. i would just jam the weathertech up into the channel more, just to make sure.

 

its not going up any more, i tried that. Should i email them and say i got a bad visor?

 

I had the same problem with mine. Eventually it went into the channel and I have no problems.
Just keep fiddling with it.

 

where do you recommend buying the visors..
ive been considering getting em for my car

 

I didn't have this problem, but I've heard of it happening before. Eventually, the channel will widen and the window will work like normal again.

 

i bought a set from trdsparks for my sister in law. they are the ones that stick on the out side and look just as good and no issues with the windows at all

 

Sounds like either a defective guard, or it's broken.

The guard stays in place by pressing against the inside of the window channel, which also causes it to bow out slightly, keeping it away from the window. If your window is hitting it and going back down, then the guard is not pressing against the frame.

I had to have guards shipped to me 3 times before I got a full working set. One was broken on delivery, and another cracked and broke during install. Carefully try to remove the one that's hitting. I'm guessing the B pillar end of the guard was cracked and broke when the window hit.

Haven't had any problems since, keeps the car cooler in the summer and I don't have to worry about sudden rain storms.

 

Do they send out a replacement for free? Or do i have to return the defective guard?

 

Yup. Although mine rattle a lil bit when the window is down now.

 

uhm...did you follow the directions? i put a set onto my gf's xa, and it says that once you put them in, you have to leave the windows fully up for 24 hours to get them to stay in place properly. did you do that?

 

yes i did. I took them off today and thought maybe if i reinstalled them again they would fit. It turns out that the left tab of the vent was cracked. I know 100% that it didnt crack during installation. For now i glued the piece back on with crazy glue, and it works perfect. Im guessing this was the problem. I want to figure out how it cracked in there.

Should i call the company and ask for a replacement? I mean 100% it didnt crack during installation. Is this problem covered by the warranty?

 

mine took like 2 weeks to settle and now they roll up just fine as if the visors weren't there.

 

odd
my windows rolled up fine when I installed mine.

only thing is that it would slow down the closer it got to the top. after about a week, it opens and closes at normal speeds.

 

mine got cracked/chipped when i rolled up the window. try sanding the edges i sanded mines and now its working great.
