In Channel Window Visor Problems

Quick discussion on installation of in channel versus exterior auto vent shade window visors.

In channel window visor problems. I ve only had in channel visors on my vehicles as i think the outside mounted ones look pretty awful just my opinion but i ve never had any problems with the power windows not operating properly. The heat will allow the visors to flex into place. What you should do is take a pair of tin snips and cut the visor in the middle to make it easier to take out of the window frame. In channel vent visors do not have this benefit.

In both cases no drilling is. That means there s no risk of scratching the glass or interfering with window operation. Obviuosly the first time you put them on and roll up the window it ll be a tight fit but that s what helps them seal. Leave the visor in place and do not roll the window down for a few hot days to allow the window with the visor mold into place.

Also you will need to tug outward on the visor when you roll the window up the first few times or the window will catch on the edge of the visor and possibly break. Pull out the pieces and don t worry if the rubber gasket comes out with it because you can clean off the adhesive and pop the gasket back in the channel.
