    Has anyone been able to find a set of window vent shades that will fit on a 2001 XC70?
    You know, the plastic things that mount over the windows so that the rain doesn't get in if you crack the windows a bit?  

    I can't seem to find any that have the XC70 listed...

    Hi Berklee46,

    Haven't considered them for my car, but I know
    WeatherTech carries them.

    Hey Art, while you won't need them in sunny Alberta, you may have to think again if you visit your BC digs in the winter.

    I would like to see the full set on a XC70, I was looking at getting the full set for both windows but not sure if it will be OTT, has any member got them already.

    Here&#39;s a link from the same site showing both front and rear Weatherflectors. Beats the peel and stick variety IMO.

    I got mine Saturday and they were a breeze to install. The manual says that it will take up to 24 hours for them to &quot;settle&quot; into the window and I found that to be true. The first day, they stopped the front windows from going up automatically, since the glass would hit the ventshade, but now they are working just fine.
    And they look really good too&#33;
