Finally.. vent shades at a normal price..

Toyota Prius 4dr 2010 2011 vent shade window visor : eBay Motors (item 400103048501 end time Mar-13-10 16:50:56 PST)

Has anyone gotten these from this guy (HIC USA)? I saw that he's located in the same city as me, and sent him an email but haven't heard back yet. I also saw therer were like 5-6 guys with 2010 Prius cars who bought & received the visors, so I'm wondering if any of them are on here.

I did, it looks really good. will add pics by tomorrow. Easy to install too. Took about 10 minutes.

Installed them yesterday & I am very satisfied with the look & quality. At $29.95, they can't be beat!

Yes, I purchased a set of these window vent visors on ebay from HIC USA. THey are great. I have always bought Weathertechs before that fit in the window channel, not liking the ones that fit outside the door. But with the black door surround, these do not look out of place. They installed and fit easily and quickly. I did use a heat gun to warm the doors up so the adhesive sticks better initially, because it was 40 degrees when I did it. They are made in Taiwan, look great, and do not block the front end of front doors like the in-channel ones do. Which, I believe is a plus, because of the limited visiblility of small windows and large pillars.
I recommend them, especially at the price.

How is the wind noise before & after putting them on? That's my main concern is at freeway speeds, as I don't want to hear a 'whistle' or 'growling' noise from the air hitting it.

I like to have the window cracked a little when I drive, just like a little fresh air. If it's raining, I don't get a wet leg.

But, in the summer, I like that the heat can escape with a couple windows crack. However, you will need to dust inside a bit more often.

I've tried Weathertech's window channel ones on my wife's previous Suzuki, and the didn't allow the window to go up all the way. I have VentShade window channel ones in my truck and they are perfect, for 17 years, now.

+1 for heat gun and proper cleaning prior to installation, or you won't be satisfied.

I do not notice any differance with them as far as noise goes!

Sorry for the delay, but here are some pics......in the snow..lol

Put mine on today, I think they look great and allow those of us that didn't get the solar roof to keep the car a little cooler while parked.
HIC shipped very quickly from Ebay, great price and they fit perfectly.

I like the smoked tail lights!! Do the cops leave you alone out there.

lol at the snow pics of the visors.
thanks for this thread.

i have weathertechs on my matrix and was looking for something similar cause weathertech doesn't have any available at the moment.

been lucky so far, had it on since June 2009 and have not been pulled over. Even been through a couple of DUI checkpoints and the cops never picked up on it.

I'm doin it!!I work nights get off at 2AM bar rush here!I got one city I drive through it's 30 mph if you go 29mph they follow you, If you go 31 mph they pull you over!! Lady cop pulled me over one night shes got a flashlight in one hand and her other hand is on her 9MM!
she stuck her head in my car like she was going to kiss me
( to see if she could smell booze) when she could not she asked "where you coming from"!!I knew it was none of her F'n business, but it's 2AM and shes got a big gun!! I said I'm workin nights just like you ! Than she chewed me out for going like 4mph over the limit.
It's funny they sit on every corner!! No 24 hour donut shops here..ha..ha.. ound:

Looks like they are no longer selling them. All 600D, those tail light covers look good. I'm picking some up tonight.

Vent shades arrived Sat. Will be putting them on today.

I also, ordered them as they are the "only game in town." But do you get a tracking number when they ship?
