Question Weather Tech Rain Deflectors

I just ordered some of these Weather Tech rain deflectors from JC Whitney.

I was intrigued by the fact that they "snap" into the window channel and don't use adhesive.

Anyone else out there use these? How do they hold up?

Thanks...

Thumbs up

I have them and have been happy with them so far. they have held up through highway travel, high winds, and the car wash. I did have one come loose in the car wash one time. It was very cold outside, and I wonder if the thing shrunk enough so that it easily blew out the channel. Not sure, and it hasn't been a problem since. Considering how many of the stick on type that I have seen flapping in the wind, I'd buy these again.

Excellent product.


I live in Fla. and don't use automatic car washes and I have never had any issues. Can easily lower the window 1" from the top and not get any rain inside during the heaviest S.Fla. storms.

I can see where cold temps and those machines could dislodge them though. They rely on the friction of the moulding and some tension to hold them in place. I am surprised they came out with the window up (in an auto car wash so I assume they were).

They are lower profile you might say and are therefore more subtle looking.

They continue all the way down to the sill which is very nice.

They can be removed (and replaced) easily for cleaning, detailing, whatever.

Yea, I like 'em.
