I see some "JDM whores" in the making
This is how it starts..cool JDM horns, lights, and air fresheners. Next, it's Vertex Bodykits and Volk wheels, soon a tattoo of Tarzan Yamada on your butt cheek

I don't see a tattoo of that nature on my ass in the future nor any "fresh" scent apparatus....

I do find it funny tho that they have an air freshener like that for the car.

VentShades for liftback.

Finally got a minute to take/post a picture for you.
Installed them this past weekend.
Takes about a total of five minutes.
You have to keep the windows closed for 12 hours after install so they can seat properly.
One poster had a concern with problems rolling the windows up.
Once the VentShade has seated in the windo channel, there is a no resistance. The edge/flange that fits into the channel is super thin so care must be taken when installing.
Tension is mainly what holds them in, very tightly I might add.
They cannot be removed when the windows are closed so, they won't get stolen. . . . .

No, the window slips in, right up along side of it. The Ventshade is pressed against the outside of the window channel.

I've only used ventshades once. I found Weathertech to have a superior fit and NO GLUE!!! The ventshades look every bit as good but there is a difference, weathertech are flawless, at least the 5 sets I've used!

The weathertechs that fit the Yaris are flaeless as well. I have had them for a couple of weeks now and it is easier than ever to roll the windows down, perfect fit and the look factory.

Toyota Japan ones don't cut your hands if you slide your fingers along them (coz of the way the plastic is formed and the mould it uses). Important when you're washing the car. I've had mine and survived big downpours, kept the inside dry and never had to use the A/C to demist the windows.

doh..don't remind me of cut fingers..that was the worst part about my last set on my truck. Everytime I tried to wash my windows properly, or stuck my hand out window to wave to someone I end up bleeding on myself. And it's not just a simple "papercut"..they can cut you pretty deep.

That's the difference between cheap@$$ drape moulding vs injection moulding products. I would not have any product that is drape moulded if my fingers have anything to do with it.

Injection >>>>>>>> Drape.
