Default inside view of window louvers

I'm thinking about getting either the Roush or CDC pillar window louvers. Looking for views from the inside. What does it look like with the Roush/CDC louvers? Thanks!

It looks like a piece of plastic is covering your windows. But the window plates and then it looks cool.

With the Roush louvers, can you see the adhesive strips on the glass from the inside?

With teh Roush louvers, can you see the adhesive strips on the inside of the glass or are they located along the borders?

No problem. The adhesive (3M Double-sided tape, in this case) sticks straight to the body. They're still on great after close to a year with no foreseeable issues. And thats without their adhesion promoter (157db I do NOT want a lecture lol)

Staggolee...thanks for the pics. Have been trying to get my wife to agree to these for awhile...(she's still mad at me for trading the VW Beetle for the Stang if you can believe that)! She said she doesn't want louvres because you can't see out of them. Your pics show otherwise. Thanks.

The windows are useless anyways, she's just making excuses. Just do what men always do... Do it anyways, then say sorry and buy her some flowers.
