Window Deflectors (MZ562863EX) for Evo X

Anyone installed one yet? I'm getting one on Friday and wanted to install it myself (dealer wanted $90 for installation). Please let me know how long it took you and from a scale of 1-10 how hard it was. A step by step "how-to" would be great also, thanks!

dont get them i had them on my 8 they use to get on my way of my vision, but if you must there easy to install basically you take the wheather strip and the clips go inside you take the 3m tape off the window visor and guide it around the window than you just insert the the little screws thru the clips

I just put mine on and hour or two ago. It's simple and comes with instructions.

My finger nails hurt from pulling out the weather strips.

and do they really make any difference?
I mean be honest, you don't have to justify your install to us. Some people like the way they look.

All the mexican immigrants here in AZ put those on their cars. Not feeling that style. They sell those at autozone right next to the curb feelers and hubcap spinners if you're interested.

I want the inside channel install. they are good in snow and rain. you can turn up the heat, open the windows and not get snow or rain inside and not get foggy inside. if you plan on putting the one that you stick outside the window forget about it.

Aren't these for smokers so they can vent their windows and not have to deal with the wind/rain etc?

They just seem kinda ridiculous on an Evo I think, but if thats your bag go for it
