Default Window Visor Problem

I have a 2007 GS350 and i bought the weathertech window visors for my car with matching floor liners. Both look great on the car but I am having problems with the window visors. Since installing them (following the directions letting them sit for a week or so without opening the windows) I still dont have the automatic feature back to roll up in one click of the switch. once it hits the top of the window the safety feature kicks in and the window rolls back down. if i hold the window switch all the way it will close. I am trying to get back that one click and automatically closes. my friend has the same visors on his is250 and his still works fine. and help and suggestions are greatly appreciated thanks!

So is the visor actually blocking it from closing all the way to the top? I had this problem in the beginning with my AVS too..gotta pull the visor away gradually and repeatedly from the window. Eventually it should mold itself and not come into contact anymore. Properly installed visors should not keep the window from completely closing. Hope this helps!

I'm assuming you're talking about the front side windows.

Did you use the black metal "S" clip that they provided? Mine work like they should with no problems.

You should be able to get it for under $400 from the vendor section. You're right... Should just buy Lexus OEM (jdm) visors.
