• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

rain or sunshine..... I’d take either one of those if I didn’t have to deal with snow anymore 😂

Would these things keep the windshield washer fluid from dripping onto my arm when I leave the windows down?

That's as close to rain as we get down here for long stretches of time :)
 
KIA ones look good on NF. I'm still waiting for Weathertech to make a set so not to block the satin trim around our non NF
I would have rather to have the in-channel rain guards, but these will do for now

I always though those were for chain-smokers that needed the windows open 365/year. :p
 
Are these difficult to install? Or should I ask easy to mess up?

I had the dealership install mine. But it looks like they are held on by 3 clips
 
Why is Kia putting screws in their products. Doesn’t the hood deflector have screws showing as well. I prefer the “clean” “smooth” look. i don’t know. Maybe I just need to see some in person.

You can't see the clips

I’m talking about the screws or bumps in the picture above. The rear door guard has 2 and the front has 3. Not sure what they are but they looked like screws. Just never seen any like that. Usually they are completely smooth.

That's my car. Hahaha.

The clips are metal, and they are held onto the visors with plastic clips, almost like plastic rivets. You can leave them off and just use the double sided tape, but it will leave holes. There's another person in the forum that installed them that way. I ended up using them for the added security.

Personally i like them. I'd say just take your time installing them. I imagine it can be easy not to line them up correctly. And i bet the clips could/would scratch the trim around the window. I thought about getting the weathertechs if or whenever they come out, but have grown to like these. I also kind of like/appreciate the Kia logo on them.

Do you have a KIA part # by chance? Are the Canadian versions? Thought US versions were stick on covering the window trim. Thanks
