Weather-Tech Weatherflectors Install

Yes I have been busy retrofitting Boxy with stuff. Today I installed these. They cost $64. Tomorrow my Valley hitch comes and I'm looking forward to that. Anyway, here are the pics:

Thanks for the great photos and detailed instructions. You made it easy to understand for those of us that have not done this accessory yet.

No problemo. If it wasn't for this site, and others like it, I wouldn't be able to do the other mods to Boxy by myself.

did you have to remove the window molding or do they just "snap in place"?

klynch13 · 03-10-2004, 06:42 PM

Nothing to remove. They go into the window channel.

cool! where did you order them from and did you get them to cut down on the wind noise - if so, does it work?

Excellent add-on. I got mine here:

Go with the dark ones - Way cool

That's exactly where I got them epod & I do have the tinted ones. I will give a report after today chusaka&me. I just installed them.

I drove to work with them today and they work great. They block the sun on that awkward angle that sometimes prevents you from using the sun visor. I couldn't roll down the windows just yet because the instructions said that they should sit in a closed window for 24 hours after the install so I will have more to report tomorrow

Early on they will "scrunch" a bit when the window is raised. Seems tight, but everything loosens up after awhile.

I like that the window can be partially rolled down at freeway speeds in the rain without any blast in the face! :D
