yea, the original from toyota, but that is very rare and they are kind of no use, it is very thin. I have camry, but I have not had time to modify them.

I don't understand how you would go about mounting them with frameless doors. They would have to stick to the roof AND clear the windows, which would make them pointless.

yeah i dont see how these would hold on even. the space between the window and the rubber is quite narrow .... the car is perfect as it is
