Noticing that during cold weather my interior gets alot of condensation on the inside of the windows after sitting for a few hours with my windows up.
Thinking that if I can keep the windows open a bit it would help.
Wondering how they look on a coupe, especially on gray.
Post pics if you got 'em!
And do they work to help condensation build-up on the interior?

Sweet, thanks for the pics.
I can imagine that they are barely noticeable with a dark tint on the window.
I'll assume they help with wind noise as well while driving with the windows down a bit.
Going to get these..
Cheap Vent Visors

Yeah, the one's I linked to, don't follow the curvature of the window frame very well, and IMO, unusable.Originally Posted by lowlife9
spend the extra money and get weathertechs. Off by a good 1/2", and the only way to make them work is to physically bend them. Under that kind of stress I don't see how the 3M tape would hold them.
I immediately went inside and ordered the WeatherTechs.
Hopefully they actually fit the damn window.
Maxplus brand from Ebay. Cost $20 plus shipping. Really good fit. Been on a year and still going strong.


there is a guy selling real carbon fiber vents for around 80 dollars but there the stick on style the in channels he is currently working on.

I noticed the little fish-eye mirror. I thought I was the only one. lol. Believe it or not, I look in that one rather than the stock mirror. I think it comes from years drive the box trucks.Originally Posted by Pheet

or atleast parker.is condensation happening because outside atmosphere is entering the car, so i think you'd just make it worse if you left the windows down.

that should leave condensation on the exterior, who wants to be a guinea pig to try this theory out, i would but its raining non stop here lol

i was not talking about when it rains, condensation builds up when its cold out (i can go into detail with this if you like), ever heard of dew? Unless there is moisture inside your car then you should not have condensation build up on the interior.
so think about it this way leave your windows down overnight you will have more moisture inside your car then having your window up overnight, check your weather stripping and for interior leaks. And don't be a smartass =]
