Windows Vents/Visors
If I was thinking about getting some of these would I just get a pair for the driver and passenger doors? I have a 2-door so would it look stupid with just two or would I need to buy other ones for the smaller back windows? |

if you bought some for the smaller rear windows on your 2 door I think it would look stupid, if your going to install them however cover up the chrome trim around the windows or esle it looks stupid

Regardless of how stupid it looks... I'm getting some myself. I've definitely moved beyond the requirement of "looks good" to the "i need my car to be functional" stage.
eff looks. my car has visible rust. its not going to be on a showroom floor.

Are you going to buy a pair for just the driver and passenger doors? |

I have them on my sedan and they don't look too bad. If you're putting them on a coupe, I don't even think they have then for the rear window so it would just be for the functional windows.

i have the weathertech brand ones that go inside the track on the top of the window, and this allows functionality and looks by not wrecking the chrome trim on the outside, and does not require tape, or wreck the tracking of the windows

I have a coupe, so just the fronts. (it would be idiotic to have them on the back windows, since they are immovable.) |

if your defroster is on, the sides fog. if the sides are on, the front fogs. there is no good setting with the damn hvac, except having the windows cracked open.
...but the geniuses who designed the roof... decided its a great idea to slope it so water pours off the side of the roof directly onto the window controls. thanks guys! |
