I installed EGR in channel window visits on both my 22 and 25 mavericks. The front ones on the 25 sometimes vibrate when the windows are down. I asked the folks at EGR what the tape is they use on the rears, so I could get some of it. They asked for proof of purchase, and I told them and showed what I had for the 22, but the ones on the 25 were a gift from the kids (they have the 22 now). Instead of sending me some tape telling me what brand it is, they sent a brand new set. I’m still gonna try to find some of the tape (I have some 3m HVB, but it’s thick stuff and what comes on the visors for the rear is really thin) now have an extra set. They sent me what I ordered for the 22, matte finish. And I went with smoke on the 25.

I am currently in a long conversation with Maxzina regarding in-channel visors which they offer for Mav.
Many years ago, I installed front in-channel visors in a 04 Focus. These visors were absolutely fantastic. They required no tape or metal clips. They (were sold by Weather Tech) manufactured very precisely in Germany, I believe. They actually firmly snapped into place, and you were complete. Visors for the back windows did not have this capability and were never purchased. They lasted over 15 years.
The installation instructions for my Maverick "project" are "problematic". First , tape has a shelf life, and second the clips they ask you to insert into the channel are likely not going to function in the way they were designed to.
Details such as these are very important to me. Fortunately, Customer Service at Maxzina has actually been very eager to help and discuss this concern. That is a very positive thing. They agree with my suggestion that tool which they supply for clip installation can lead to problems. I am Ok, my windows are working, and visors are in place for 2 weeks now. Soon will be removing clips, then replacing them with a new procedure.

I know it's a little too late now.
WeatherTech now makes in-channel visors for all four Windows of the Maverick.👍
When I bought mine from EGR. WeatherTech only made visors for the front windows. I called WeatherTech and asked, when they would have the rears available. They did not know when the rear visors would be available.
I wanted a full set of four.
So I ended up ordering EGR's smoked transparent window vent visors.
Added tape to the fronts and I've been very pleased with my EGR's.

Ditched my rattling and very annoying EGRs for a much nicer in-channel clipped set from NiLight.

Very happy with them!
