Wind/rain deflector question
Guys, I need to buy some deflectors for my X but not sure whether to get the stick on kind or the kind you simply slide in or however they work.
Also, should I get Black for my Pueblo gold truck or some smoke or something?
Is there a difference in quality?
The problem I have is that after it has rained and I drive and roll the window down. IF I stop, all this water just pours in right on top of my door/window controls on the drivers side and i'm afraid it'll ruin something.
Thanks
George

I'm thinking a lighter tint might look better..

I can see this thread turning into an arguement, Guiri quote "just ignore me and NO, I don't want to hear replies like..WE ARE!"
hahaha, just joking.
I have those on my doors. They are very helpful and they also make your truck look really good. Ive never had the problem that you have stated. "The problem I have is that after it has rained and I drive and roll the window down. IF I stop, all this water just pours in right on top of my door/window controls on the drivers side and i'm afraid it'll ruin something." When your driving the wind just blow the water off of them. Especially when you use alot of mothers wax on them like i do
. You should deffenelty get the black ones.

I like the kind that slip into the channel. They have glue on them to hold them in place securely. And they look better than being stuck to the exterior paint.

While they are described as "smoke", they appear gloss black once you install them. Real nice quality stuff!

Id do both, the front and back. Its weird when ople just do the front or just do that back. Its worth it and these things actually work. Just remeber that you cant role the window down all of the way. They dont protect that good.

I had some on a little S10 truck that I had but didn't put any on my Rodeo.
On this one I will definitely need them.
Thanks
