I had front driver and passenger windows tinted and i was looking to get some inchannel window vents but am worried if this will hurt the tinting

XBRachel

no i have had mine for a month now and no. the inside does not touch anything...

tyrantcold

cool thanx for the info gonna buy some inchannel window vents now ;)

Wade or Weathertech are the only way to go.

Vent shades scratched my tint go with e'sams or toyota japan vents. much more sturdy and more functional.

took mine out, they were in channels...they stink..had to re do my tint.

tyrantcold

yeah ive been hearing that more and more, is there anyhwhere else besides Newscionparts.com to buy the exterior mounted vent shades ? have a hard time spending 300 for molded plastic

Then I bet you didn't have the Wades or the Weathertechs....neither of those make any contact with the inside of the window whatsoever. They rock and look 100X better than externally mounted ones.

My Wades only touch the outside of the window in the channel, so doesn't touch the film on the inside.

tyrantcold

im gonna check my window tinting i dont rememeber if they tinted both sides or just the inside.

vuittonbox

I hope just the inside...

cierrecart

Yeah...nobody tints the outside of a window.

vuittonbox

well...I wouldent say nobody...If you can think it its prob been done...If you know how people can be.

vuittonbox

..hummm..I bet I dont care what they were..they suck...If you got good one then Im glad...cause the ones I got...no good....


I should say they were nice for awhile...but they also made my rubber molding stretch out.

cierrecart

Well are you actually gonna provide some useful information and tell us the manufacturer or just keep spouting off? The Wades and Weathertechs have proven to do a fine job on the xB. The Ventshades brand have not.

As for the rubber pushing out...thats why the doot seals are made of rubber...to accomodate anything that might be in the way while still sealing the door/window. It's rubber...it will go back to normal if properly maintained.

wow...you get upset quick...you seem like your trying to sell something.....you want me to tell you the name brand so you can
compare to the ones you sell...lol...

Im just messn....I think they were vent shade...the double side stick tape on it wouldnet work worth crap...and as for the rubber....I know it goes back to normal..I was just stating what it did...and If you found a name brand that works great then why worrie about me a giving useful info??

I was wondering if they could be mounted between the rubber window channel and the actualy metal frame. That way no plastic would contact the glass at all. Plus the 3M tape would stick better. Any thoughts?
