Default Need Input on rear side window louvers

Hey guys, I'm thinking about taking off my 3dCarbon side scoops (window and quarter panel) and going with color matched louvered window covers instead. But, there are a ton of them out there and I'm looking for the ones that can be removed periodically for cleaning the window. Can anyone tell me who makes those?

Thanks!

Why are you doing this? Are you bored of the look?

At first I liked them but now the more I look at them the more they just looked "stuck on". I just keep going back and forth on the look. The hood scoop is awesome though. I'm just second guesing the side and window scoops. Not to mention the fact that I now have zero visibility out of the back windows. It's only really an issue backing out of tight places. Louvers aren't perfect but better.

Also, I dont like all the louvers. I dont like the ones with too many slots or the ones with too few. I'm looking for something in between that looks good.

I hear ya. I think they're all going to look stuck on though...cause technically...they are. As for visibility, I guess the louvered style would be better. I think SilverHorseRacing has a flush mounted louver you can checkout...but it requires extensive work. Good luck.

Roush louvers can be taken off for cleaning, but obviously the hardware is on with 3M tape. Good luck!

Ive had my SSE ones on for a few weeks now. Im happy with them. You can see out of them somewhat. Not bad from a driving standpoint. Just a little getting use to. Im working on creating something I can stick in the rear louver to clean the window with, lol. So far its not dirty in there.

Are the brackets for the Roush stuck on the glass or the paint?
