Wind Deflectors?

I'm considering getting some Weathertech wind deflectors for my 2016 screw, but I've never had them before. Any likes or dislikes? Do they impact visibility? My dog loves to have the windows open, but I can't stand all the wind noise. I also leave my windows cracked in the summer.

Not sure if Weather Tech makes them or not, most companies do, but you can get clear then there is no worry about visibility. I have some in channel ones that are smoked and I don't think they caused any issues though. The problem with inchannel is that the auto-down may be engaged until the gents settle in good and don't contact the window when you roll it up.

Weather Tech does indeed make them. Here they are from 4 wheel parts

WeatherTech - WeatherTech Front and Rear Window Deflector Set (Dark Tint) - 82765 | 4WheelParts.com

I just ordered a set for my dads truck, so i cannot attest to the quality or any visibility issues.

I've had them on every truck I've owned for years. Virtually indestructible, can't be stolen like the ugly stick-on ones and let me drive in the rain with the windows open a bit and when I'm parked in the summer.
The only downside that I've found is that they can increase wind noise a bit when all the windows are closed.

So nice to be able to leave the window open a crack without worrying about rain. Strong winds can still blow snow in though, but it's rare....
