OEM, Weathertech, or other for Window Vents?

I installed the weather tech vents the other day. First off they install in 5-10 minutes for all 4 vents, and they look great. The rear vents do come with adhesive strips so make sure you only peel off the colored tape and not the adhesive part. As far as figment goes, the rears are perfect and the front passenger one as well. The driver side vent catches the window at the top rear corner and will make the window fully open if you hit it going up. I'm not sure if the visor will "adjust" in warmer weather. I will adjust tomorrow and see If that helps. Otherwise I will reach out to weathertech customer service

THAT would be annoying as hell. Hopefully you just need to adjust it a little. Otherwise, it could be a manufacturing variance, which would be disappointing, although Weathertech should handle it.
I'm definitely going to wait for warmer weather just to be sure everything sets properly.

I just installed my Weathertech's today in nice 80 degree weather. Easy to install, but I notice I'm having the issue with the back corner of the front visors (near the Weathertech logo). The window contacts the edge of the visor at this spot and it caused the safety auto-down to activate one time. I tucked the visor up as much as I could and closed the windows. It's sitting in the sun. I'll leave them closed for a few days and see how it goes.

Interesting to see if they adjust. It says leave the windows closed for 12 hrs after install. My driver window visor catches on the same part which is extremely annoying but it could be a design flaw/manufacturing issue if more people are having the same problem. Let us know what happens after the windows have been up for a while
