Want better "Vent Visors"...

JDM is the way to go man. It's expensive but it's worth it! I got mine from our vendor Mr. Heeltoe.

If you're having problems with them then they're not properly seated in the window channel. I have the ones from weathertech and have never had a problem once I had them seated properly.

You may have to trim a hair's width on each one to seat properly lenghtwise.

... well the only one that i'm really havin problems with is the front passenger side... the rest of them sit snug inside... but with the other one everytime i roll my window up or down, the visor shifts with it... it seems like its a lil short or somethin cause there's so much play once it's in... it could just be a defective one... cause i definitely put it in the window channel the way it should be...

The Vent Visors' double sided tape are going to peel at some point and then the airflowaround them will create a whistle while you're rollin'.
Weathertech visors are better but the JDM ones would be the best.
I want of set of either, but have held off as I am worried about messing up the body lines of my S.

I can send some pics of the navi screen, but will need my digital camera as I am sure you don't want the cell phone pics.

I usually leave my car on the "auto" setting with my sunroof tilted, but it is starting to get hot here in central Va., so I will use the a/c soon. After startup, the navi has an a/c button, and you have to push it to access all of the fan controls.

^^^ thats the factory navi setup. I think evryone knows how that works. I have it myself but the OP has put an aftermarket double din screen where the factory navi screen is supposed to be. It looks sick and everyone wants to see more pics of his.
