AVS low profile vent updates?
How are these working out for you guys? I like the look of these but wonder how well they hold up to long term use. How long have you had yours and what kind of weather.

I’ve only had mine for about 4 months in the C. Tx heat. So far so good.

AVS vents
Still like them. Broke tab on front pass. side during install. AVS sent another full set within a week.
Pleasant surprise, indeed. Used a body panel tool to move rubber window trim just a tad and the vent dropped right in, easy peasy.

Wish I could report on how it works during rain, but heh rain has been scarce over here past two months.

Coming up on 1 year ownership of the truck. I installed AVS low profile stick ons within a week of the truck purchase. Still on with no problems after many car wash trips and a 1300 mile ride to Florida & back.

Keep in mind to use a cat's paw or plastic body panel tool to move rubber trim out of the way a tad.
I did a dry fit before removing the tape protective layer.
Enjoy!
