I had my SHR's smoked and painted and I can still see out of them pretty decently. The picture below doesn't really help because of the camera flash, but I think rear side visibility isn't that bad.

How do you install the side louvers? Does it replace the entire window(glass and all) or is it something simple like tape/glue and your done?

Cool

ok guys i used to work in the lube rack of the dealer wilkinda uses so i am here to clear up any questions about the TPMS on the 2010 ford vehicles

it is correct that it is a whole new setup no more bands and clips or any of that. The setup is very similar to the dodge and chevy setup(i believe im not well versed with other manufacturers). You will be able to reuse the factory sensors but you will need to buy new valvestems and they use a certain special valve stem you cant just use any run of the mill valve stem. The new sensor is attached to the valve stem via a small screw that is easily removed with the tire broken down. If you want you can purchase a training tool from your dealership parts department if i remember right they arent too expensive and can be very handy to have if you like to play with your air pressures.

Thanks "Mustang Boy"

Do you know if we can just re-use the stems that are in the OEM rims that we are switching out or is it better to just buy new ones?

no the valve stems are very similar to regular rubber valve stems except they have a little brass "fitting" at the end where the sensor is attached. they are the same as regular valve stems in the fact that when you pull them out you have to pull them through the rim which 99.99999999% if the time breaks/destroys the valve stem so it is mandatory to get a new valve stem but the sensors are 100% reuseable unless they are damaged somehow
