*i just realized i am very defensive when accused of messing something up : )*
Thats a problem exclusive to the VentShades brand which is well documented here. They designed them wrong, plain and simple. The Wades do not snag at all when the window slides into the channel.

i just did this.... it will peal right off of the rubber seal... your problem is on the B pillars where the sticky tape sticks real good. get yourself some goo-gone and spray it on let it sit for about 20 minutes, scrape off most of it, repeat the goo-gone and then either polish real hard with a cloth (circular motions) or get a dremel with a cloth pad and use that to buff it away. its what i did (dremel) and it didn't super polish the plastic, and you can't tell where the tape was at all. just don't touch the rubber when you have it set to high speed. it will leave a little brush mark.

just talked to NSPtommy, he said gb late february / early march

What are the clips for?

Is it the same material? Any other differences/imprvements?
I guess the clips are suppose to help hold the visors up. But I think the double sided tape will do. You can tell if the visors are real or not by the clips and the ESAM logo. Other than that, I dont see any other difference!

so many people put their thoughts out and interest for these and now since they are in my possession, seems like no body wants them.

this only excludes further projects for the future.
