No need for me then. Thanks @TonyP

Beno I am interested if you can get them, let me know.

I did contact beno but he wasn't able to get near the price in the partsouq link @TonyP posted. My partsouq order arrives tomorrow...DHL shipping from the UAE in 2 days!

 

[Reckless]

Let me know how it goes, I am debating to replace mine as I lost my passenger side aftermarket tape on one.

 

[RaptorOO7]

I ordered from Partsouq today as well, put the shipping on my shipping account. Waiting on the shipping notice.

 

[Reckless]

Are there any other cool middle eastern TRD or specific parts I should order while I am shipping from Land Cruiser Heaven?

 

[grinchy]

Can you get me six 17” Steelies?

Received my partsouq order and installed them tonight. Typical OEM Toyota stuff- high quality and little details to make the fit perfect. The fronts clip in to the mirror triangle piece so they cant be ripped off by the wind and there is foam gasketing around where the windows open. They are alot lower profile than I expected, barely stick out from the side of the car. Really glad I did not go aftermarket on these. Seems to be monsoon season here in Virginia so no pictures yet but will try to get some in the next few days.

Post some pics. Mine arrive tomorrow from PartSouq and hope to get them installed soon, its been raining for the last 3 days and nothing but rain for the next few (no garage at the moment). I opted to ship it on my FedEx account and haven't seen the shipping charges, I hope it wasn't a HUGE mistake compared to the low cost shipping they offered. Still it will be worth it, prior OEM kits were $200+ so this will be well worth it.

Those look really nice and low profile as you mentioned. Of course mine are stuck in Memphis TN @ the Fed Ex Hub pending release (customs) seriously WTF. Next time I will take their shipping.

 

[Reckless]

Too low profile in my opinion. Let me know how they work in the next storm.

Do the OEM ones add any noise like wind buffeting? And is it possible to stick your fingers between the gap to clean the window?

Even the large OEM style visors on my 80 series will let some water in on a heavy downpour if the window is rolled below the coverage area of the visor. Same thing applies to the OEM 200 visors. Water will not get in as long as they are covered by the visor. The area to watch out for is the front edge near the side mirrors.

It's possible to stick your fingers in to clean them but it is a tight fit. I just stuff a microfiber rag in there and carefully wipe the area from one end to the other.

DHL is almost always cheapest with Partsouq. The only thing I've had to pay a little extra for to clear customs/duty was my Troopy windshield and that was only a few bucks. And that windshield cost 3x what these visors cost. I've placed dozens of orders in the many thousands of dollars through them in the past few months. Only the windshield got charged customs/duty.

Have not been on the highway yet so can't comment on noise yet. Definitely possible to get up in there to clean the window and the inside of the visor. My use for these is just to be able to crack the windows for ventilation so they fill that bill perfectly.

 

[RaptorOO7]

Mine arrive tomorrow, we were out of town and had to put hold on Fed Ex. I do like the low profile look of them compared to others I have used in the past. I want them more so I can have my windows open when its hot out and not have people notice the windows are open a bit.

To those with the OEM units.. If someone were to crack the windows just enough to avoid rain getting in when parked, do you think there would be appreciable potential for airflow say.. to avoid condensation when sleeping inside the rig?

Seeing that they are so low profile I'm not sure this mod would help much.. but I'm looking for a very quick to no setup method to keep rain out when sleeping inside.

Thanks

 

[RaptorOO7]

I have them on my '18 LC, I do like to crack my windows to allow heat to vent out in the summer time. I cant say for sure if it would help with condensation but they do good job for me.

Checking in on people with the Toyota OEM visors;

How is the highway noise for these?

I had a set of Weathertechs on my GX460 and I was really surprised at how much additional wind noise they produced at highway speeds.
