There are two sets on there at the moment both the full sized ones at about $80 http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from ... Categories I saw the slimline ones on there a few weeks ago. Thay were about the same price I recall. Genuine Suzuki ones are only available in the full size now (mine came with the car). I have the full sized ones and would like a dollar for every time i have scraped my head on them. The slimline ones would be much better for sticking your head out of the window.

Zukenutter has them! Come in zukenutter... do you copy?
Does water drip off the slim shield into the car when stopped?

I think the full ones are better than the slimline version. The slimline forward lowest corner is shaped in a way that creates a lot of noise. Also slimline does not keep rain out very well.

The full sized ones don't make any noise and do allow you to have the window completely down almost in rain.

I've got the full size ones, they came with the car. I'm pretty tall so I end up looking through the visors when I look out the side window. Makes it hard sometimes as there are then extra surfaces to get dirty so you need to make sure that they're clean inside and out for good visibility. That said I haven't been annoyed with them enough that I have removed them yet.  (Ignore the fully hectic flex  ) - Tim.

They are tinted but it's a very light tint. This photo shows it better, notice the passenger side window in particular.  From my driving position, the passenger side mirror is entirely obscured by the weather shield and the drivers side is almost completely obscured. A small head movement though and the drivers side is almost completely unobscured. - Tim.

Thanks Tim! That's super helpful. I'll go full size but try for as light a tint as I can.

My slim lines are tinted super dark. Very annoying and I find myself constantly ducking to look under them.

Whack my head on it trying to look outside.  Wwwooooowww.... Gym knee... pure suzuki part option visor... sea bass?? The first one actually looks very nice, something just tells me it's a scam. Was originally liking the idea of the full size ones, you could practically drive with windows down in the rain. Until recently when I got stuck in some water and had to climb out the window... not sure if this would still be possible with full size weathershields. Slim ones seem ok but the are reeeaally dark. So it seems there is no perfect solution What to do, what to do...
