There are three brackets per louver. You attach the adhesive tape to the brackets then mount them around the window using the provided template. Place the louver on top of the brackets, line up the holes with the brackets, and using a hex allen wrench, screw the louver to the brackets. The whole process takes about 1:30 to 2 hours. I spent most of my time cutting out the template shapes.. once that's done, you mount the brackets and wait about 1 hour to let it set. Then throw the louvers on. One of the easier mods I've done.

 

No I specifically wanted ones that were open so I could see out. I back up into my alley from my parking space and people love to speed there - going well over the 15mph limit in alleys!
No problem with cleaning the windows, since they don't get as dirty anymore. Just blast water in them, run the soapy sponge aound them and when it's time to dry you can get your fingers in there, or just use a chamois and stick it in. Since it will be dark you wouldn't notice it if they were dirty!
Can't wait to see what you get!

Also the ones from wheelskin will come with clearcoat so they will not be flat black. You can try asking them to paint it flat, as it would be easier for them to do that.

And 1 1/2 hours + for a mod isn't what I'd call easy! My install took maybe a half an hour and the only reason it took so long was that it was a slow job peeling the backing off the 3M tape. They use seperate pieces, so water can drain, and it's hard getting your fingernails to start it peeling! I ended up using the little tweezers on my Swiss Army knife.

 

+1 to Cervini's as well, but then mygt500 and I are both kinda impartial :P

In anycase not everyone can be as cool as us ;P


I also like the Roush ones...

 

Thanks Orion, that was exactly what I was looking for. If you can get you hand behind it enough to wife it down somewhat I'm good with that. My windows are tinted so it really doesn't matter. I just was sure if they where open or closed. Now I just need to decide. I held a roush one up to the car and just placed a few pieces of tape so I could back away and see it and I didn't like it that much. A little to big and over powering. One more question though, do these go past the edge of the window or right up to it? meanaing do they stick to the window or to the paint.It's hard to tell from the website.

Thanks for all the info btw

 

oh thats sounds good, the um, the templates do have to be cut?

 

You know when I first got my car I couldn't wait to put window louvers on them. Now with talk of people actually losing theres and just looking how cheap they look being plastic I'm glad I refrain from the whole project. Only ones I had ever thought were really cool was the ones built inside the window. Sorry.

 

I want rear window louvers because they look good and they'll protect my red leather better than tint, I think. Can anyone recommend? Had my husband check out the ones at SEMA last year and he said the ones he saw looked kind of cheap. We live in Central Florida, so I'm looking for aluminum, not plastic. And much as I covet the side louvers & scoops, at 5'6"I use those windows, so restricting the view isn't a viable option for me.

There has been talk of people loosing theirs since day one, but it is few and far between, ntm that the people whi bring it up at this point are the ones it happened too. Fact is there is nothing to worry about if it is done right. Consider there are many many more people out there that have scoops and have never had a problem than the very few that have. That said do you really think its the part or the installer?

 

Street Scene is the way to go. I couldn't be happier with mine

 

My side louvers are closed they are made by Astra Hammond
the rear window louver is MRT.




plus you can see how it looks on a black Stang. hope this helps
