2008- TL- Type S Weathertech Window Visors- I want to install these 4 (side window) visors and potentially moon roof visor. I have no experience with Weathertech. Has anyone installed these snap in visors? Quality Fit? More? Any other recommended brand?

 

There is a thread on those things somewhere on the first page or two of the main 3G board, FWIW.

 

I'd like to hear some feedback as well. I'm interested in getting the mood roof visor.

 

Weathertech = better protection, wider visor = Stands out like a sore thumb...

OEM = very dark, perfect slim design covering the entire side, looks uniform.

You'll get more function from Weathertech, but it will look nasty, of course my

 

I had a moon roof visor on my 00TL, once you put it on, there is no taking it off, ever... It's scratched the paint.

In 3G, you really don't need it, as the wind noise is already broken down by the lifting rubber piece.

 

Gotcha, thanks for the help!

 

I've got the weathertech's. I love them, 3rd car to have them. They're clear enough to see through, allows you to open the windows a little in the summer or rain. Great company, I was driving along last summer with the windows open and the rear passenger side popped out and broke. I called asked if I could buy just one, they sent me a rear pair for FREE, 2nd day FEDEX.

The fronts are a little tricky to install, wouldn't try it in the cold (depends where you live), you have to put the front in and flex the shade to pop in the rear, then the rest will slide in. It takes a couple of days for them to seat correctly. If you tried it in the cold they would snap.

have pics of them installed?

 

I don't have them on my TL yet have the Weathertechs on my other vehicle. Very good design - fit and finish. No tape or drilling required. More expensive than some yet worth it.

 

Go OEM....the Weathertechs look like ass on the rear window IMO. Check it out before you buy. No offense to the weathertech owners at all...but I dont think they did an adequate job of tapering and fitting the rear window to look right...therefore they tend to look ok on the front window...but look like a JC Whitney add on for the rear window. The OEM ones taper off nicely on the rear window and look much sleeker IMO.

 

i agree with mike..... a friend of mine has weather tech....its not bad...but its not as sleek and sexy lookin as the OEM ones...yea u pay 50$ more but at least u know its an exact fit and they look dope.

 

Igor whenever ur ready bro ur more than welcome to come by anytime.... get that sucker welded up for u no prob....been heavy around the shop n home...trying to get things back in order

 

Please don't put these on your nice TL. This is almost as bad as those door guards that get put on from the dealer. There is no reason to attach something to your car with 3M tape.

 

I would have to agree. I've never seen a car whose appearance has been improved by adding the window visors or roof visors.

 

r u kidding me? OEM looks sick




they blend so well....i said the same thing ehh its another thing to add...til i saw them and then i was like shit i gotta have em!!
Plus they have clips and tape...they arent falling off or ripping off for anything.

 

With those sweet taillights and the ugly weatherguards, I call it a wash. Did you white out the tails yourself?

 

yup

 

Nice clean SSM. IMHO, it would look better without the window visors.

 

Yeap, OEM ftw! I have the OEM best ones.

 

OEM always the best the other brands might not even line up right and look hella bolky so should get OEM

 

OEM is really the way to go, it fits perfect and looks really good with the car
