    Window vent shades

    Hey guys, I just picked up a set of Auto Vent Shades for the Vic and I am having trouble with te rear windows.
    I'm not able to roll the window all the way up due to the weatherstripping on the side of the window (its attatched to the glass and goes up and down with it)
    The weather stripping is hitting the ventshade and wont allow the window to go up any further.

    I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with this as I really don't want to go hacking away at the weatherstripping.
    Thanks in advance,
    J.

    Get some silicone spray and spray it in the weather stripping while the window is down. Run it up and down a few times and it should let the glass slide inside the weather stripping instead of dragging it with the window. I did that to my car and it fixed the barely functional front window.

      the vents definitly make the window tight at the top - mine eventually opened up and went all the way up easier
