Default Freaking Rain Guards......

Where the hell can I find them? The "in-channel" ones. Do they really exist? Lol, or do I just suck that bad at searching?

Every single anything I find about Rams and rainguards, it involves "double-sided 3m automotive grade pre-installed tape". Even if it says in-channel, tape is involve, see....

Sorry about the long link, that's just adding to my frustration.....

So, I know ya'll can help me out. At least a pointer in right direction.......

Default In channel vents

X2 for www.stylingtrucks.com. Got them for my truck about a month or so ago and they are great. This companies customer service is really good. When I received my window vents the set for the rear came two for the same side. I e-mailed stylintrucks and told them about the mistake and asked them to send out a new set for the rear windows as the fronts were perfect ad they sent me a new set of four and shipped them priority. They said that I did not need to send any of the others back and just keep them for spares or what ever. I am very pleased with them. Just my personal experience. I would take pictures for you but it has snowed most of the day and are very covered right now.

I tried a set of the "in channel" ones on my ex's last Grand Cherokee after always using the external, tape on ones on her SUVs and my trucks.
We hated them! The air got up in there at highway speed and they would rattle like mad in that channel.
Took 'em out after about 4 months and gave them to a neighbor with a GC. Went back to the old stick ons after that.
You can get a pre-application pad at auto part stores to wipe on after the alcohol prep pad that increases the strength of the glue that's on the 3M tape. Makes it like cement. If you pick up a couple of those, you'll NEVER have the problem of the ends start to come off the truck over time...

Even the in-channel use tape to secure them. Autozone has the best deal on them that I have found. They are AVS by Lund. I have installed many sets. They fit great, and have less wind noise than my external mounts on the Ram.
