    Default Rain Guards

    before we switched to the new forum, there was a good discussion on the types of rain guards that are available.

    To check out the ones that are on my ride, see the pic of my 2002 Trailblazer in the photo gallery. Follow this link: http://www.trailblazerclub.com/tb/mo...view_photo.php

    Thanks for the props Steve...I was curious what kinds were out there. Because there are the tape kind (which you have) and others that now fit up into the window. I've had these installed on other cars with the tape, so I'm still curious about the others and how they work.

    Just ordered a pair of in-channel rain guards for my Ext TB. Got a GREAT deal on Ebay. Now just have to wait for them. Will let you know when they get here and how they fit!!

    Yeah, I'll be looking forward to it. I've been considering removing the ones that I have on mine, before they're on there for 5 years or something crazy, and looking to get some that lock in the channel. The ones that I have are definately designed for the TB, but they're adhesive.

    The were put on at some point before I bought it, and that vehicle has been in service now for just a little over 3 years.

    Just an update...I ordered a set of Wade Vent visors and of course when they came, they didn't fit!! So now I'm waiting for them to send me out another pair! It took forever too...man, I'm getting frustrated. I'm just too anxious to get them on cause they're gonna be sweet!

    Where did you order them from? How did they not fit?
