Side window deflectors

I noticed ventshade did not list the raptor as a choice on their website and I didnt see these on the ford website. What brand are you guys using for the screw window deflectors.

The Raptors cab is the same as all F-150 trim levels.

What brand do you think looks the best on the raptor. The only one I know of is ventshade. Not sure which ones ford sells but im sure they look good.

don't get ventshade they whistle over 45mph and water pours on the inside of the seat when it's raining out.

I have the WeatherTech ones..... no complaints

I had WeatherTech in my F250 for nearly 10yrs, I will only buy that brand again! Their floor liners also seem to be the popular choice on here too!

I use Putco's - they can't leak because they fit inside the windo track and don't rely on two sided 3M tape for waterproofing like Ventshades. Zoom in on one of my truck pics and you'll see they look pretty good.

Element Tinted Window Visors by PUTCO

I just glanced at their site - they have some cool accessories.

Yeah, the WeatherTechs I have work like that too. They actually offer both options.

I'm with JP7, I would also recommend "In-Channel" shades over the stick-on crap.

Doesn't the in-channel shades not seal very well.
Isn't it the glass against the plastic?
Or is there some kind of seal built in?

That was the exact reason I took my weathertech's off. Mine didn't seal very well and they creeked and squeaked all the time. Plus, my window was not going all the way up into the channel either.

I really want some, but I don't want to stick them on.
