Default Please post pics of your rear window louver

I'm thinking of getting the rear window louver in black textured. It installs in seconds with double stick 3mm tape. Its 300 bucks on ebay. I would like to see it on your cars that have them. Thanks a lot in advance!

Roush makes some good window louvers, but I personally think you should go with the flat design instead of the slotted ones. (I don't know what to call it :P)

personally i think that GTstang06's window louvers would be a lot better for visibility issues seeing as there are less slots blocking your view. I love both of them however. It would be on my mod list if i had a coupe.

Be careful with louvers that attach only by tape. The window absorbs cold and causes the tape to loose its adhesiveness (if thats a word) over time. Being in MA, you'll get some very cold days and that will effect the tape. They're both good looking, but don't go on looks alone. Sturdiness and dependability are equally important.

Are your louvers bolted by some screws or something? in addition to tape?

There are 4 mounts at the top of window, 2 on each side. the 2 inside are tape mounted on a 2x2" bracket that secures the lovers to the windshield. the 2 outside brackets are also tape mounted, 2x2" brackets and they have clips, part of the bracket, that go under the window at the top for support. The louvers slide underneath these brackets for support from wind lift. Then there are 2 support brackets at the bottom, 1 on each side where the louvers get clamped down (they are liftable for cleaning the window). These too are tape mounted by 2x2" brackets. I had problems with the tape not adhering securely on the top brackets due to some uplift tension from the louvers and dealer removed them and used heavy duty-extra strength-Superman type automotive tape. haven't had a problem since and its been very cold here.
The secret is to have a warm windshield to begin with to allow the adhesive to bond securely. Shortly after having mine put on, it turned a little to cold and I don't think the tape had time to set properly. But being that I bought them thru the dealer and had them installed by the dealer, it's all warranty covered.

The thing that I found strange was that not only do they come with a lifetime warranty but it says they uninstall and reinstall quickly if you want to clean the glass...

This is the only pic I got on the work computer. They are also the Roush Louvers that came in Performance White ($410 from Summit )


Changes the car's look almost instantly.
