There have been wind buffering fix(es) out for like a year now.

We already have a huge thread on the matter.

Worse problem is trying not to speed in it.

I jumped in here thinking it was a solution to the silly horn!

So the door edge guards really work? Interesting, i think i may take this approach, did anyone actually apply it to the door edge or just throw out the spare two?

They work very well and the gloss black color matches perfectly. It's a nice, sleek look. They actually look OEM in my opinion. Not sure why more people don't at least give it a try before spending so much more on some of these other, often ugly, options. At $8, just throw them away if you aren't happy with it. Spend the money you save elsewhere. Like wheel spacers, ZL wheel well flaps, Weather Tech matts/decals, CF interior pieces, A91 stripes, etc.

I just threw away the two extras that had the company logo printed on them.

until a certain MPH from what people said. So they don't work 100% like ours do.

I tested mine up to around 70-75mph with no issues. No need to try any faster. In fact, once I get to 55 or 60 I put the windows up anyway. Just too loud and not enjoyable at higher speeds.

only mentioned it because several people who installed the ebay/amazon ones said it themselves publicly that the noise comes back over a certain speed. it was either this thread or one of the others. I cant remember where.

I might pull the trigger today on this. What did you use to trim the pieces? I see on the store page that it comes with 3M tape. Is that true? I think I read earlier in this thread that it wasn't 3M tape.

I'm glad I stumbled on this. I was about to plop down $130+ on another solution.

Scissors will do. They have 3m tape on the back, so make sure the spots you're going to apply them to are cleaned with alcohol, and a little heat applied won't hurt either. Super easy.

I did the amazon $9 door edge fix but let me say it didn't get rid of the issue 100%. I would say maybe about 90% of a fix. I'm hoping Toyota fixes this on a future model and then we can all swap our factory ones with OEM ones from Toyota.
