WeatherTech window deflector pics and opinions?

[Kedis82ZE8]

In rainy climates anyone think there is MPG to be gained with these instead of using the AC with defogger?

It sounds like the WeatherTechs can be removed at a later point without much hassle.

I ended up ordering a set tonight.

I like to keep the window open a little bit but the rain challenges that.

I have the dark weathertechs as well, the light is way too light.

While I did notice a bit of wind noise, I have no issues with the windows rolling up and binding.

My biggest complaint is they STILL let water in a slightly open window, as the wind coming off them causes water drops to be blown UP into the open window.

I think if I were going to do it again I'd get the OEM's

Another OEM alternative are WellVisors as they use a similar way of installation with locking pins and 3M double-sided tape:

They're a good bit cheaper ($50 shipped) and the quality and fitment are great.

I had the Mazda OE ones installed on my CX-5 three weeks after I bought it, part of the deal and I don't notice any additional wind noise or clicking when I open and close the windows.

I hear wind noise when I'm driving over 65-70mph and the radio is off. I'll just keep the radio on. (wink)

I did go with the lighter color as I felt they matched the factory glass closer.

I also used a set of these from HF... it seemed to help on the install.

No idea on wind noise yet or experience with rain.
