    I own and have installed the same type of window rain guards on my PiP. The fitment is perfect and no problem with the 3M tape. Do not vibrate at high speeds and it keeps the pesky rain droplets out for great ventilation.

    As anyone noticed any affects on MPG after installing the visors?

    If there is any, must be negligible.......
    You can find a bigger impact with a difference of a 1Lbs of tire pressure

    if you like to crack the window a little when it's raining - the minuscule affect to MPG is irrelevant

    I'm looking at the set from Weather Tech, I like the no tape look, not real crazy about the price.

    Weathertech makes nice stuff, but it's hard to beat visors for under $30.

    I like the looks of these, however on ebay I see they are for 10-12. Mine is 2013, is there a difference?

    Thanks for the reply, does this generally hold true? I see a lot of items that show to be for 2010-2011 and 2010-2012. Is there any difference in models that would not apply to the 2013?

    The door frames are alike, have not been a design update.
    This doesn't hold true for headlights finish.
