Default Window vents....
Has anyone noticed the wind noise after installing window vents? I'm seriously thinking about taking mine back off. It was quieter without them. I sure didn't think they would make as much difference as they do.

Interesting-----mine was a LOT louder without the vents. The buffeting would drive me crazy after a while

Jetboater, What brand did you have? Wind noise with the window open a little went down when I added mine.

I think they're vent visor. I had a 07 Ram. Traded for an 08. When I was going home on the highway, I noticed how quiet it was compared the 07. Put the visors on and I had noise.

DO you have the in channel vents or the outside that stick to the body of the door. If you get the in channel vents, then they will sit closer to the window decreasing the sound.
