Does this look right? Should they pull the seal away this much and on the bottom r they suppose to stick out a little or should that edge be pushed in to ride on top of window channel.. window won’t work right if so

I put those on as well. Wind noise was a lot more noticeable. I took them off after two days. That gap your talking about stayed after I removed the visors. Its slowly gotten better with each day but its not gone away. It does look like its correct in your first photo. That second picture looks weird to me.

Had AVS in channel on my 2015, I'll never have them again. Noisy and rattles a lot.

Yes, the bottom sticks out so that rain stays outside the channel. I've installed several of these on my vehicles, and family's vehicles. (Weathertech brand, but still in-channel).
No noticeable noise increase, and I've been using them for 18+ years on various vehicles.

The channel seal does come out a little bit at the top, since there's a piece of plastic in there now, but it will seal up tight when the window is closed.

Thanks , was fearing with wind driven rain it would leak into the door with the seal looking like that. I don't notice any increase in outside noise, well yet anyway ..

I put the EGR version on mine, and they fit great. The wind noise is driving me crazy. I’m really considering pulling them back off.

Well had high winds the other day and while cruising on Highway sounded like a freight train of wind coming in the front passenger door.. yes the door was closed and window up lol .. royally pissed me off. Dont know if it is the Vent Visor or the door seals themselves as others have mentioned.

That’s why I don’t use them damn in-channel visors, and why I use the tape-on style.
