Anyone have 08-10 weathertech window deflectors/visors installed?

I have a 2010 sedan (silver) and would like to see what they look like on the car, I am having a hard time choosing between the dark and light! I previously had these on my truck and loved them. If you have these please send post a few pics of your car with the defloctrs installed and include the following info.

1) are the deflectors light or dark?
2) % tints you have on your windows.

Thanks in advance!

My friend has them on his Tacoma & fell off several times already. I also heard someone's rear one fell off while driving 50 mph...

IMO, why not OEM rain guard kit? They are cheaper & look better.

Not my car but here's OEM:

I vote against weathertech as well. They look okay. But I've heard of too many cases of them falling out.

I should have gone OEM. I got a set of Bayson R visors. They're good and work well. It's just on a sunny day, they start to look purple. Maybe one day I'll rip them off and get OEM.

When you're a hot person () who easily fogs up the windows when it's cold/raining out. Rain guards start looking pretty good.

If you smoke and it's raining/snowing, these tend to help...

OEM!!! Great quality and they come with these seal type clips that help hold the window visors.
