Window Vent Visors/Deflectors Tape-On or In-Channel

[Chieffreeze]

I have searched the forum for this subject but haven't found anything so I apologize if I missed this discussion.

Are any of you considering window vent visors/deflectors for your RHO? If yes, describe which style you prefer (i.e., in-channel or tape-on), what vendor you like (e.g., AVS, Weathertech, EGR), and why. I have had both styles. The in channel always seem to bind the window, make them squeak, or they rattle (which drives me crazy). The tape-on seem more susceptible to coming off. I have never had the tape-on style come off even after drive-thru car washes but I have heard stories about that happening. They also don't look as good as the in-channel style and if you decide to remove them it can be messy .What are your experiences or recommendations. Thanks

I always go in-channel. Have for the last 5 vehicles of mine and last 3 of for the wife. I got the AVS from @Nick797 and couldnt be happier. No binding on the window, still super smooth operation and one touch functions perfectly. I can grab you some pics tomorrow if you want to see them.

I like In Channel, AVS has been backed up a tiny bit as just like these trucks being delayed from so many orders..some of the parts are that way too.

But just about any of the brands in channels will do the trick, I will say weathertech seems to not hold up to heat very well if you are a very hot climate.

Pictures would be great. I would like to see what they look like installed on the truck. I appreciate the info about the quality and no issues with the one touch window operations. Thank you

Thanks Nick. I was looking at the Weathertechs and I like that they seem to extend farther down the window. Heat shouldn't be a problem for me. I think I'll try the AVS as they cost less than the WTs.

First two are exterior, inside window up, window down a little, and last pic is looking down the side from the front.
