Just picked up a pair of the Xenon window scoops, and dropped them off yesterday to be sprayed. I tried placing them on my windows and they dont really seem to fit snug. Im worried that the 3M tape wont hold these things. I dont want to be on the free way and have them fly off. Does anyone have them and have no problems? How did you install the,m? any imput would be greatly appreciated .Thank You

 

you will be surprised at how well the 3M tape holds things in place. Just make sure you use the adhesion promoter before sticking it to the car. It may sound silly but if it doesn't fit right, try putting in on the other side of the car. You would think they work either way but they don't. Each louver is made to fit either the passenger side or the drivers side.

 

Your look great, I think they are the CDC Louvers, did you install them with the 3M, does water get in when I was the car?

 

You were in my car? When?

Yes, they are held on with 3M tape. A few areas lifted but not noticeable or a big deal. The louvers are open so yes, water does get in between them and the glass. No issues though since the water does run out where the tape lifted a bit. Louvers have been on the car for about 6,000 km with a lot of highway driving. No way are they going to fall off.

 

I have had mine installed since June. They still look great. I also went to a tint shop and had them put black vinyl (satin finish) on the windows inside. It makes the windows blend in with the black interior perfectly. The only bad thing is pulling out of a parking spot, huge blind spot. Have learned to to use the side mirror more than ever, thanks Ford for making them big.
