Found a fix and ordered some piano gloss black B pillar covers, should blend nicely.

[MENTION=134559]Rnlcomp[/MENTION] Looking at the pictures of the vent visors, will you still be able to install the pillar covers? The vent visors look like they sit flush to the pillar. Will you have to cut off some of the pillar covers. The pillar covers look really nice.

Only took me about 45 years to get a little smarter. Now I can move a little easier although the damage has been done.
Let's keep on reminding the younger ones that smoking is not cool.

For 30+ years or so I never knew how bad it stunk. I did gain 40lbs but have taken off 15 since Jan this year.

[MENTION=130512]joe mcmillan[/MENTION] and [MENTION=134559]Rnlcomp[/MENTION] Do y'all remember back in the day they use to pass out free samples of cigarettes? I grew up in Columbus Ohio and I remember they were passed out as sample packs like passing out samples of stuff to try at the store. They had baskets of them passing them out in downtown at lunch time when everybody is out and about from work taking lunch. So I do believe that contibuted to a lot of people started smoking. I tried it and did not like it, plus I deal with allergy issues, so it bothered my nose so bad, I knew smoking was not for me. Glad you quit and feel better.
My Dad smoked Pall Mall forever. Seems like almost as many years I am old, then he had a heart attack which put him in the hospital for a while, that is how he stopped smoking. When he got out the hospital, he tried to go back to it, but said it was just too nasty and he could not stand the smell. So being in the hospital caused him to stop smoking.

If and when I sell my truck I can either leave these on or remove them and the cloth seat beneath them will still be in show room condition. win/win




Those look GREAT!

[MENTION=105622]Tmacfred[/MENTION] That is good. I absolutely love mine. I came out of a Chevy Avalanche which was a good truck to me. What do you have? Do you have a picture on here?

Ok just went for a test run and tried cracking the drivers window 1st-no buffeting, cracked the passenger window-no buffeting, then I let both rear windows down-no buffeting at all, I cracked the windows about 2-3 inches or roughly about the width of the visors @ 70mph and no buffeting at all until I dropped them half way down but with that gap the visors wouldn't do any good anyway.

Didn't have to open the rear window either.

Haven't decided yet, it's easy enough to lift the lower edge and slide them under as there is only one little square of the body side tape and I have extra, will have to see when they arrive.

Can't say I remember the free smokes thing, that's a little before my time.
