DUBYUHNELL18 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Has anyone on here installed the in channel vent visors? if so do the work well? do they allow the auto up feature of the window to function or do they get in the way? if you did install which brand would you recomend? I have done some research and most reviews are good for the in channel systems however there are also the bad and very few about how they fit on the edge. they look slick installed and all my other cars have had stick on ones. Just dont want to waste $60 on something that wont work Thanks in advance, Ford convert in NY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have used them on my wife's SanteFe, and my old Toyota Sienna--- they are the only way to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shantz Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I bought a set of in-channel visors, but I couldn't get them to work. The one-touch window would keep sensing the extra thickness of the visor and go back down. Is there a trick to installing them - or a specific brand that out preforms another?

beamer5084 Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 I had the in-channel ones on my Sierra and in MN it got too cold and the adhesive wouldn't stick inside the channel so they fell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackson5 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 I had the in channel on my 2011 Edge. The wouldnt even install without cracking, and i threw them in the garbage can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoelter Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I had a set on my jeep wrangler and they worked great so I ordered a set of Weathertech in-channel for my new 2011 Sport. I'll upload some pictures once they are installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronyschak Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 i also had 2 sets on my JK Wranglers with no install problems. Let me know how the Edge install compares. I got a 4 piece set from Lund and had only 1 problem with the drivers side door. Lund replaced the problem piece and everything is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41deacon Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I just put some on yesterday. They are AVS, and work well. They were very easy to install and I dought they will fall out, it gets pretty cold here in Jersey too. The fit is very good and they look nice and are functional. I would suggest these over the stick-ons . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought AVS visors and my windows wont roll up unless I pull the visor back. If anyone could help I would appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtbalser Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Weathertech, the only way to go. Have them on my 2012 for 2 years, no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone could help I would appreciate it. Had same issue with the AVS ones on my Mkx (uses exact same AVS model as the Edge). Even though these are suppose to be in cannel, apparently the front slit portion is suppost to stay outside like the non in channel version. When I called AVS support, they told me if that portion is slid in the channel behind the mirror trim, window will not close. With it not being slid in there, the visors just looked bad. As mtbasler said, get the Weathertech in channel visors instead. They fit and look much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pushed in the weather stripping on the outside and put the ends in there and it seemed to work. Your right, it looks like crap. haha. Ill give these a go for a bit and may switch to the Weathertech. I hate wasting $60. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
