WeatherTech Side Window Rain Guards with Dark Tinting - Front - 2 Piece
When installed it was loose, called and you said it would seat in as it takes a few days to seat in. I ask if I should use double sided tape, the person I talked to said no need. A few months later the passenger side decided it wanted to go flying and that was the last I saw it. I called etailer and told them what happen, and they said to call Weather Tech. I did and was given the run around. These were on our motorhome and is not used every day. I only drive it every other month in the winter and maybe twice a month in the summer. I was told it had passed the warranty timeline. The driver side has stayed on because I used double sided tape to hold it on after I had lost the right-side rain guard. I asked for a supervisor of etrailer to contact me and that person never did. I have had good luck with etrailer and I'm sad that this happen.
Install was easy, window is a little snug when rolled all the way up(actually i stripped my window crank handle trying to get it all the way up) as it gets pushed against the lip of the vent but it keeps the water and snow out and lets fresh air in. took over a month to ship out to me due to a back order but i suppose not much one can do about that. i would recommend these to others.

Everything from Weathertech is awesome! This were a breeze to install and they look great, like OEM great... Pleased with the ease of installation, the fit, and the finish. Now, lets see how they hold up in the next few years.

Putco Element In-Channel Window Rain Guards - Tinted - 2 Piece
These rain guards look great but after a week of having them the driver side cracked due to the window getting in a bind while rolling up. Every once in awhile I have to push out on the rain guard to get the window to roll up. Also they rattle pretty good with the windows rolled down. I am still using them but if I had to do over I would have bought the stick on version.
Etrailer is GREAT!

WeatherTech Side Window Rain Guards with Dark Tinting - Rear - 2 Piece
First bad experience with a WeatherTech product. Do not recommend for 2010-2014 Ford Expedition or similar models. I see 4 flaws. 3 of 4 pieces cracked at the corner even when I tried to be as gentle as possible in incrementally raising windows once installed. It seems to be just a few millimeters too oversized. Second, Rear windows will not raise all the way back in place due to thickness of plastic, it stops. You have to push windshield up while holding the switch. I was worried that this force would damage the window tint due to excess friction and it may push the rubber out to the point it would be damaged if I took them off months or years later. Third, and arguably the most important. Too much wind noise. The Ford Expedition is very quiet for an SUV. I tried these for close to a week and I had to take them off. It sounded like gusty wind noise even when there was no wind other then the vehicle going through the air. I removed them and the SUV was quiet again. Four, It isn't optically correct. Hard to see in the photo, but when looking at the area between the A pillar and side mirror, it's wavy and distracting. Also makes the A pillar appear much larger when it's darker outside due to the tint. So even though they look nice, and you can crack your windows in the rain if your car is sitting still or you never exceed 50 mph... I wasn't able to get comfortable with the above issues. I can't return them since I installed them and tried them. But hopefully someone else can benefit from this.
It’s still early. I did the upgrade while in a walking boot (cannot drive) due to an Achilles rupture. So I can only comment on the install, which was much easier on the back windows. The front windows were a little awkward but eventually went in. I don’t like the ‘clunk’ as the window closes in the last inch or so. The window comes in contact with the deflector and clunks. I hope the plastic heats / cools and reforms as it sits over the next few days. Otherwise I like the look and finish, it’s just the fit which I’m not completely convinced off yet.
