I installed a set of the Weathertec wind/rain deflectors on my 2021 2500 crew cab. Weathertec generally has well made product, but it is a bit more expensive than the Amazon knock offs. There is a very good reason to pay the extra. The deflectors were REALLY easy to install. Between their video and the paper instructions you get a real clear picture of what to do. They are also a quality product, made in the USA, unlike so many of the others that are made in China crap.
The only slightly tricky part is the rear deflectors use two clips to angle the deflector properly. You have to pay VERY close attention to picture ten in the install instructions to make sure you have the deflector oriented to the clip properly and the clip in the window channel the right way. Basically the curved lip of the clip faces out, and the deflector goes over the curved lip so the clip provides tension on the deflector. This ensures the deflector does not interfere with the window going fully up into the channel. It also holds the deflector in place, along with a bit of 3M adhesive, so it can't pull down when you roll the window down.
Once on they look like a factory piece and because they go up inside the window channel, rather than being attached with 3M on the outside of the window frame, it is a much cleaner look.
