Default Window Deflectors

So back when i owned my Ranger i bought some regular black window deflectors from Pepboys.
Got tired of not hacing them yesterday and went and grabbed some for the truck at OReillys.
Unfortunately i didnt realize that unlike the ranger where the deflectors fit inside of the window sill. These go on the outside.
So does anyboyd know where to grab some online or instore that fit inside of the Dodges window.

I will never put the In channel one's in. They wear on the seals and create drafts/wind noises after a while, especially if you ever decide to take them off. I like the stick on outside one's even if they need to be re-applied every so often.

Agreed. I use the stick on ones too and have never had a problem with them.

I had the exact set on my Silverado. That pair was on for 3 1/2 years before a branch fell and broke the passenger side one. When I replaced it, no worries about the paint because the tape is the same stuff your emblems and door spears are stuck to the paint with.
