"Side window visors"

Well, when I purchased my car just over a month ago, I also purchased the side window visors. We don't get really hot weather here, so leaving the side windows down an inch or so means not having to use A/C. The visors keep rain and dew from dripping inside.

Got the visors and installed them myself. After a few days, I noticed the tape that holds them on starting to fail. After a month, it was failing enough to worry me they would be flying off at highway speeds. Back to dealer.

"If you installed them yourself, we don't warranty them. You didn't clean the door well enough." was the parts counter guys response. I took him out to the car and pointed out the tape was coming off the visor, not the car (the visors come with the tape already on them). New visors ordered, no charge. Visors came in and I replaced them. Turned out they were not very easy to get off the car. The tape had failed on the front 3-4" of the front door window visors, and the rear 3-4" of the rear door window visors. I had to pull like crazy to get them off. Comforting. I guess.

So, these are the "Toyota" window visors (Toyota part) and Toyota Canada. Not Weathertech that I can tell. Are the ones you get in the US different? These stick on with tape, and have a support that clips to the visor and sticks to the door on both front and rear on the ends that meet in the center of the car. They are over 1/8" thick. Oh, and kudos to the dealer (Kingsway Toyota), they cost me less than advertised on the Toyota Canada web site (around $80 vs over $100). Perhaps the web site price was "installed". Kingsway charge $20 to install them.

BTW, they work very well. They don't seem to affect my mileage, are not noisy, and do keep water out. When my father was traveling with me, he was able to smoke his pipe with the window down an inch or so, and all the smoke went out the window. And I think they make the car look better.
