Default Side window deflectors

What type are you guys using? The stick on or the in channel ones?
I like the look of the in channel but I have heard of problems with them.

I like the AVS channel rain guards but there is a little break-in period with them. I've always bought the stick on AVS rain guards never had any problems with them on the 3 f-150's I've owned.

I have the Putco in channel vent visors. Follow the instructions to the letter and the results will be good.

I liked the look of in channel, but didn't like hearing the stories of bounce back and scratching of window edge/tint damage... These have the look I was after and work great.

AVS Lo Pro. They do not flow much air. I would do with the regular style if you are looking for lot of air flow in the cab.

Can anyone give me any ideas on how to fix the auto up I've had nothing but issues since day one of install I've tried every reset possible from holding the switches and leaving the windows for 48 hours to pulling the fuses while the windows in motion the passenger for the most part is okay driver will only stay up if I Manually put windows up I don't get it I was almost to the point of ripping them out and getting out channel ones and calling it a day any input would be fantastic at this point

Also the visors came with V shaped clips you put on each end for some reason the are gone I put the windows down and the disappear into the door so I probably have a few of those rolling around the other issue is why do they keep coming out

I have the same problem with my AVS in-channel vent's. Not a big deal most of the time just raising them manually, would be nice for the auto up to work correctly all the time though. I just like the look of these in-channels vs. most i've seen.
