Functional 1/4 window louvers

I've never seen these before, but they look pretty bad a$$ if you ask me. Has anyone installed these?

Also, these will work on 10+ too right?

YES! Little miss sarcasm! I want to run ducts to the brakes or something. Or seal it up. It just looks good!

I wonder how much air actually goes into the duct. I'd wanna see flow numbers before I paid for those...

Pretty sure the roof and windows is the only thing that stayed the same as the 05-09 models.
Edit: Yup I was right, although it says its been tipped a little but idk what exactly that means.. http://www.motortrend.com/features/a...g/viewall.html

MT is wrong. I had both cars sitting next to each other and actually measured they aren't the same size windows.

I am sure someone out there makes them if you actually want them, doubt they will be cheap though.

Yeah, the 2010+ window isn't quite as tall as the 2009 and earlier. I think they had to adjust the height on the window because of the fender coming up higher. The length and overall shape is the same, just shaved down on the top and bottom.

Here's a photo of a 2010 louver against a 2006 window.
