    I've been running with weathertec's for like 5 years now, no window issues...yeah I smoke...but the car doesn't come out in the rain, so except for washing, the windows are down, so my opinion is s$%# and I'll shut up now.

    Yeah, I find the WeatherTechs to be the best option for rain deflectors, period. Very nice, durable quality, and they give my windows no issues. The stick on ones just look cheapola to me...

    The weathertecs do not cause my window problems its that little design issue I just did not want to make it worse or have the motor have to wok any harder. I also beleive in buying local when the shipping is likely to cost more than the product if you have to pay to get it then ship it back and then to recieve a second pair.

    Yup WeatherTechs are the way to go. The other ones (glue on type) just make any car look cheap.

    Circ - could you post pictures, I have a feeling with the design of the VX it will not look that bad???

    Me too...the W-T's are also far more resistant to melting due to accidentally touching them with a lit smoke. I've done extensive testing.
