Wind/Rain Deflectors

Does anyone manufacture "In-Channel" wind rain deflectors for my 2009 Honda FIT (besides Weather Tech)?

I use the Honda OEM ones. Installed a few years ago, really like them. Bought mine from Benardi Honda. Installation was OK, once I did the first window and saw how they attached.

Do the OEM ones mount to the outside of the car or slide into the window slots?

Mount to the outside. There are some decent You Tube videos on mounting them.

If memory serves me today, the OEM window deflectors do have clips that enter the window channel in addition to an adhesive strip. They're very well secured. I just wish the drip edge didn't land water directly onto the armrests when windows are down past the deflectors. I assume the curvature of 'em is intended to better channel wind, and it does great at that. They're not noisy.

Fit came with weathertechs and they rattled a lot when driving with the windows rolled down 2" or less. At highway speeds they were very noisy as well.

Switched to OEM, and they produce next to zero wind noise and zero rattles. I would to OEM 10-10 times.
