• In-channel mounting design installs flush inside the window frame for a factory-integrated, low-profile appearance with no exterior tape touching the painted body
• Keeps rain, sleet, wind, and road debris out of the cabin while allowing windows to remain cracked for continuous fresh air circulation
• Reduces interior heat buildup when parked with windows cracked, keeping the cabin cooler without running the A/C
• Minimizes interior wind noise and mirror fogging at highway speeds for a quieter, more comfortable ride
• Eliminates stale odors from pets, smoke, food, and athletic gear through passive airflow while driving or parked
• Constructed from high-grade, impact-modified acrylic - strong, flexible, scratch resistant, and car-wash safe
• UV-resistant dark smoke finish retains its color and will not fade, yellow, or discolor from prolonged sun exposure
• No drilling, no exterior tape on painted surfaces, and no special hardware required - secures with pre-applied 3M automotive-grade adhesive inside the window channel
• Greater side-mirror visibility than clip-on or outside-mount style deflectors - no obstructing "leg" in the mirror sightline
• Backed by AVS's Limited Lifetime Warranty and made in the USA with global materials

Product Description

The AVS 194233 In-Channel Ventvisor is a precision-engineered, 4-piece side window deflector set designed to span the full production run of the Ford Expedition (1997-2017), Ford Expedition EL/Max (2007-2017), and Lincoln Navigator and Navigator L (1998-2017). Custom molded to the shared door and window channel architecture of these Ford full-size SUV platforms, these ventvisors install flush inside the door frame with no tape contacting the vehicle's painted exterior and no drilling required. Whether fitted to a classic 1997 Expedition XLT, a mid-2000s Navigator Ultimate, a rugged King Ranch, or a 2017 Expedition Platinum, the result is the same: a clean, factory-integrated appearance combined with practical all-weather protection on every drive.

Each deflector is built from thick, impact-modified acrylic that holds its shape through temperature extremes and years of daily use. The dark smoke tint is UV-stabilized to resist fading, yellowing, and discoloration over time, and the surface is scratch resistant and car-wash safe. Installation is entirely tool-free: each piece slides into the window channel and bonds to the rubber seal using the factory-applied 3M automotive-grade adhesive, keeping all exterior painted surfaces completely tape-free. Windows should remain in the up position for a minimum of 72 hours at 50°F or warmer after installation to achieve a firm, long-lasting hold.

This part covers an exceptionally broad platform range - three generations of the Ford Expedition (including the EL/Max extended wheelbase introduced in 2007), and three generations of the Lincoln Navigator (including the Navigator L extended wheelbase, also from 2007). All trim levels across all supported years are covered, from the entry-level Expedition XL and XLT to the luxury King Ranch, Platinum, and Navigator Reserve. All supported engine variants are included: the 4.6L and 5.4L Triton V8 engines from the Expedition's early years, the 5.4L V8 used through 2014, and the 3.5L EcoBoost Twin-Turbo V6 introduced for 2015. Both 2WD and 4WD configurations are supported throughout. Backed by AVS's Limited Lifetime Warranty, the 194233 is one of the most versatile and longest-spanning in-channel ventvisor applications available for any single platform group.
