get the in channel ones, they look and fit better than the stick on ones IMO.

As stated above the in channel is better. And be careful like TurdFX4 said. I did the same thing on my F-150.

Leave both windows all the way up at night or when not driving for a few days to help them set.

The other ones stick on your paint. I never did like the ones that stuck to the paint.

i installed my in channel ones over 9 years ago. never had any troubles.
I've heard of car washes tearing off the "stick on" ones.
also, the "stick on" ones give the vehicle a cheap look, while the "in channel" ones look awesome!
