Yes I tried a couple of different brands, talked to tech support at the makers, tips from here, no change. I finally convinced myself I didn't need them a couple of months ago. Some have luck, some don't I guess.

Oh no, I'm definitely keeping the visors. I like them more than I like the auto up. I can live without the auto up function. Just sucks cuz it was cool.

1) Inside the cab, remove the plastic cover on the passenger side near the floor.
2) Now remove the plastic cover over the fuse panel. Press on the two tabs on the side to remove the cover.
3) Fuse #1 is for the driver's window; fuse #3 for the passenger window.
4) Turn the ignition to the "on" position (don't start the truck).
5) Working with the driver's window first, with the window up, have someone engage the window in the auto-down mode. While the window is going down, pull out fuse #1, the window should stop going down. Put the fuse back in.
6) For the passenger window, do the same thing except pull out fuse #3. Put the fuse back in.

Once you go this, the bounce-back feature is gone, and you'll be able to put your windows up and not have the deal with the bounce-back feature triggering on your in-channel ventvisors.
Just an FYI - your window will re-learn express up and bounce back will return if you ever hold the switch for more than 0.5 sec after it closes.
