Window Vent Visors

Has anyone installed vent visors yet? Are they popular here in the states?

I would love to see a pic of a Max with some installed. I had some on my Explorer and thought they were the best thing since sliced bread. You can open your windows a few inches in the rain and you don't get wet, you can leave your windows cracked when you park and not worry about getting anything in there, etc. But I have my reservations about their looks on the Max...so if anyone knows of some pics somewhere...

And you can also buy them at http://www.autostyles.com

I have the Weather Tech for my I30. Its nice on a rainy day you can open your window and not get soaked, and also makes my car appear a little darker with the tints. However, it doen't have any UV protection, so it won't shade you from the sun like tints. All the pics I have with them are at night, so u can't see ****

It's geocities.

Either:
1) Cut and paste in a new window
2) Drag the link to the "E" icon on your address bar.
