Window visors - in channel or not?
#22
Avs had them for two years. Only had it tem bounce back maybe 5 times. All due to the little tip tat slides under the mirror. Also a good tip for installing them. Warm the 3m tape bit with a heat gun, and clean the body with rubbing alcohol. Then make sure you have it right cause they will stick and never want to let go

Seamless visors for me as well. Because they are a lower profile, they are not as effective as the visors that stick out more, but without a doubt, I will sacrifice a bit of function for how good these visors look. It's been over two years that they have been installed and not one single issue.
PS: Where did you get the cool headlights?

I have AVS in channels on my 2013 XLT and so far nothing but problems. Rear ones won't seat in right and keep binding the window at the bottom of the plastic vent visor, and the fronts will ONLY go up if I am manually closing the windows with the button.
1 month in - and ready to pull them. I LOVE how they look, but they just don't function AT ALL with the windows.

I didn't know about the seamless ones till this thread... Now I'm even more confused - - But I'm leaning toward the standard stick-ons or the seamless ones.

Just an fyi.... for the in-channel users.
Ford is giving some guys a hard time if the window motors go bad. They are saying the vent visors are to blame for that. Because the window is being pinched in the channel and making it harder for the motor to push the window up....

I would not recommend the in channel visors I had them for four months and the windows would constantly hit them and go back down. So I ripped them out tonight and ordered a set of seamless hopefully they are better.

I originally bought in channels but when they arrived damaged, I was glad and switched out for the stickons, non seamless. I didn't really like the way the seamless covered the pillars, and the inchannel's have a tendency to permanently scratch your windows, let alone the hit and miss of actually getting them to work. I am happy with my choice. I think the regular ones look great.
