Speaker 1: Today, for our 2013 Chevrolet Cruze we're going to be test fitting the WeatherTec Side Window Air Deflectors with dark tinting for the front rear, part WT82545. These WeatherTec Air Deflectors enable you to keep the bad air out and the good air in while looking factory installed in the process. It's especially nice during the summer to let that heat out from inside the vehicle even when it's raining. Aside from having a nice low profile look, they will reduce wind noise while driving as well. These are very durable with a three millimeter thick acrylic construction and come included with both front and rear visors. Now that we've been over some of the features of the Air Deflectors, let's go ahead and show you how they install.We already have our driver's side installed.
We'll start here on the passenger side. First, you wanna make sure that the windows are rolled down about half way, like you see here. Just enough for you to be able to get some soap and water and clean off the tops of em, where they're gonna make contact with the deflectors once they're installed. So we'll start by taking our front passenger's side visor, sticking it in the front end first and taking the rear end and putting it in about a quarter of an inch to a half inch down where it's going to be sitting. Then it's a matter of just twisting em in to place all the way up towards the top.
There we go. With our rear visors, it's a little different. They have these adhesive stipes, we'll just peel back the top layer. Then with our rear window, we'll do it a little bit differently, where you slide it in and just kind of push it up into place. And then we're gonna actually pull outward to make sure the adhesive gets on the outside here.
We'll do that all around, like so.Then our next step is we're gonna open and close the windows five times, leaving them up after we're finished. Now you're gonna hear some creaks and cracks while this is actually going up. That's nothing to worry about. It's just that setting in place. And once you get the final window finished, you wanna leave these rolled up for 12 hours after you install them to make sure they seat properly.
And there you have it for the WeatherTec Side Air Deflectors with dark tinting on our 2013 Chevrolet Cruze.

Good, strong product. Some difficulty in installation. Waiting to see after mandatory waiting period of 24 hours. Edges broke during roll up of windows. 664118
Review from a similar Side Window Tinted in Rain Guards
Product arrived well packaged in perfect condition with good installation instructions. Easy to install. I especially like being able to lock doors but leave windows cracked open to let heat escape. Don't have to worry about a sudden shower soaking door electronics and seats. 269516
Review from a similar Side Window Tinted in Rain Guards
The front window air deflectors work as expected without problems. The side window air deflectors never stayed in place after installation. I made several attempts to reinstall them when they came lose. Finally, one of them came off while I was driving on the interstate and it has obviously disappeared. 392989

Dear etrailer.com, you guys aren't just the best in THE business, you might just be the best in business, period. You are a model of how online shopping and service should be done. Congrats on a very tight ship! This product from WeatherTech is definitely on par with their other excellent products. The installation video provided by eTrailer was a great help in supplementing the printed directions that come in the box. The first one is the trickiest, and does require a bit of care, but after that, the others are a cinch, and the whole installation only took about 10 minutes. Looking forward to being able to more securely vent my cabin on the (many) hot days we have down here in the South! Thanks for making it easier on me! 350078

I have window deflectors on all our cars, and now our daughter requested a set for her car. They allow me to park at work all day with windows cracked open for ventilation in baking sun, without concern that the weather may turn to rain. The deflectors also allow me to cruise with ventilation, even in rain. These have three benefits and one bonus: 1) The WeatherTech window deflectors are the in-channel style, so external tape is not used in installation. 2) WeatherTech is the only manufacturer I found that offers a 'lightly tinted' version. I prefer this because the deflectors contribute extra dimension to the blind spot of the front pillar. There is better visibility through these than the standard darker tint. 3) etrailer sells and delivers them below the item cost on the WeatherTech web site. 4) Etrailer contacted me after the order to alert me these were out of stock and on order from the factory. They expected receipt in 3 weeks, and promised delivery within 4 weeks. I was in no rush since it is winter and hard to install in brutal cold. Somehow, etrailer got them in and delivered them to me a full 2 weeks before their own estimate. Great product, and better service than I could expect. I cannot ask for more. 111398

Simple to install, looks great. Can leave windows open a bit when it's raining to get some fresh air. Ordering from trailer could not have been any easier. Shipping was quick. 359189

Installed the front Side Window Deflectors on the 2017 Subaru Outback, after watching the factory video and reading the included instructions. The overall installation was easy, however the location of the "weather strip clips" was not 100% clear. They were NOT shown in the factory video and could be placed in two different ways over the window gasket material........... over the window trim and outside the rubber window seal..... or over the window trim and inside the rubber window seal. Tried them both ways to find out which one was correct, which caused me to remove one of the deflectors after they were installed. Guessed that the clip should be outside the rubber window track????? Also noticed increased wind noise at highway speed with the deflectors installed. 417479

I purchased these for a new, 2018 Subaru Outback. The rear window deflectors fit perfectly and went on easily. The front window deflectors did not fit. When installed, the windows bound up on the front of the window and would not go up. I feel they are too long for the window. I tried to install in all different ways but to no avail - the window would not work. I previously installed on a new Ram truck and Ford F-150 without any issue. I contacted Weathertech but did not get any response. 638690

Bought air deflectors for both Toyota Camry and Tundra. The deflectors fit right the first time and were easy to install. These are much better than the glue-on type of air deflectors and protect a larger portion of the window opening. Very pleased with them. 215607

Review from a similar Side Window Tinted in Rain Guards
They work well. They look great. I'm only giving them 4 stars because one of them cracked while installing them. The piece that cracked is hidden and does not appear to affect the performance of the rain guard. 937384
Review from a similar Side Window Tinted in Rain Guards
East to install, very durable and cannot fall off like the glued on types. Great to keep your car cooler in the summer months and allows air circulation during times of rain. 934026
