Apparently, Inspire makes sets of 4 for the late model TL's. I'm trying to get more information on them. They are more expensive than the WeatherFlectors and attach differently...

The back weatherflectors seem very different I mean they look like they are closer to the car then the fronts. The fronts go into the channel right? And the backs are 3M tape?

ZodiakTL - What brand are those? Do they go into the window channel or stick on the outside? I thought that WeatherTech 'WeatherFlectors' were not available for the rear doors...

those are the honda of japan oem rain-guards, made for sabre/inspire. the fit perfectly under the the rubber lining in the window with clips, not into the rubber channel, and also have tape to hold them close to the body and not let water through... i got two sets for my 00TL and the 02TLS and the look awesome on the car. got them from ValueTL <- great guy, great service

in short - yes

but really, i use them when it rains, i dont like driving with ac on all the time. but having just the front makes the car look horrible... i hate the way it looks on that pic... messes up all the lines... so u gotta shell out 4x the price for cosmetic purposes, but not only is it usefull with that, it also looks great... makes the car look less tall, more aggressive.
