Does anyone have a tutorial on how to install these? They were in the backseat of my car when I bought it. I'm looking for a way to install them so they won't fly off while driving down the highway. For as long as I've owned the car I've never really had them installed. At one time I tried velcro and wasn't very comfortable with that.
Thank you,
Enzio

I wish there was a way to clean the glass under em. Was always dirty looking there.
I contemplated Velcro also but didn't think it would work. I'm now thinking skip the louver, put snake right on glass, and some how make
them open with choke cables or liner actuators from drivers seat. A sort of power wing window. D side clasp broke away.
I would like it to look stock so maybe i''ll put louvers back on.
Always disliked that one snake facing the wrong way.
I bought some and here it is just sitting on car. IDK now its a snake and an egg?
They just made window stickers illegal for inspection here but I bet louver would fly.

Snake and egg. That's funny.
Does anyone know what the factory used to stick them on?

No idea about then . This is what today,
