question for you guys that have installed these on your car.. did you guys use the extra clips that came in the box... those tiny little screws for the clips are so annoying to work with and did you guys have to take out the window seal ? or can i do it without taking that off

 

take out the seal and use all hardware.

 

your talking about the small window seal right on the outside of the door ? i tried taking that out and it wouldnt come out

 

its the rubber peice that the window rolls up to, start at the corner of the rubber peice you should see it, i had trouble installing these at first too, that is why my driver side one is only held on by the tape. I figured out how to position the clips the more i kept looking at everything after getting pissed off on not figuring it out on the driver one. The driver side one is still on pretty good, but i think im gonna put on the clips soon and retape.

 

i started off with the driver side front but i think im going to try again and do the rear first since it looks easier

 

I used clips the first time the 2nd time I just used 3m tape

 

03tl_type s...
when you just 3m taped... did you remove the original door seal too? i didnt see any clips in the box i got so i figure 3m tape all the way. please help. thanks!

 

no u dont have to.. U can partially move it to get those clips to stay in.. the one behind the B pillar and behind the mirror.. If u get wat im saying. I just used 3m tape kuz those clips where a PITA and the member I bought them from didnt send me any..

 

okay. so you didnt remove anything. i did just clip it in and it looks pretty sturdy. but i only test fitted it... i didnt drive wit it. lol dont want it flying away!!

 

^i know man those clips are a pain i dont even have a screw driver that small to screw the clips in.. im thinking about just leaving them out

 

3m tape ftw... i hope...

 

lol 3m tape is actually pretty strong i 3m taped my license plate to the side of my bumper and wen i try to pull my license plate off it would rather bend then come off of the bumper its like krazy glue lol

 

Use the clips/hardware that comes with it. Just keep working the weatherstripping, it'll come out.

 

i didnt remove anything, and never used the "extra clips"

i used the clips for both ends and used the 3m-tape that came on the visors and broke 130mph in that car with just that. the extra clips are unnecessarry unless your trying to ward off theives for a few more seconds...

not needed in my opinion.. especially not worth removing seals for.

 

yea if i had the clips i would use them. but, guess ill just have to deal with what i got. these things look awesome right now... sitting on the box that it came in.

 

i just installed mine today i left the clips out just taped the whole thing they look great

 

kdawg, so you just 3m taped the visors on? no working back the weatherstripping, clips or anything?

the thing is, the one clip which is kind of squiggly is on when i bought it. i would like to just tape it... however it is in the way. anybody know i if i can get this off without breaking it?

 

i jus put it on without taking no weather stripping off... i just peeled back the ribbon on the tape on the visors and put it on slowly so its perfectly in line and thats all it took me like 10-15 mins to install em.... i washed my car before i did it though so everything is clean

 

noice! thanks
