I can't seem to find them for a supercab, front doors only. No sense in putting deflectors on the half door windows which don't open anyway?
Any suggestions

It was hard enough to just find any that fit the super cab. I personally like the look of the rear deflector even if it is totally useless. To me it makes it look complete and not like something is missing. To each their own and I can understand if you do not want the rear deflectors on your truck.

Weathertech ones are good in channel options.

I like the in-channel look of the Weather Tech.
Have you noticed any increased wind noise after the install?

Okay just a quick tip on the AVS low profile stick ons. Dummy me wanted to install them closer to the door edge instead of lower and closer to the window for looks. It does look good to me. However 2 small (relative right?) problems. Problem 1 with it higher the lower adhesive points are raised due to the curve of the door and will not make contact. I had to thicken them up with layers of 3M tape and use my heat gun ( very carefully) to get the shade to bend for adhesion. Problem 2 is with them mounted higher less coverage for lowering the window. If I had to do it again, I would mount them lower. Just putting it out there to save someone else anguish:(.

Yeah I mounted mine lining up the top of the visor with bottom of metal of the door. This put the 3M tape on the rubber window trim. Gives better coverage down by the mirror and lined up better with the split between the doors on my supercrew. And like you said you get better window coverage with them lower along with your other issue. I've had mine on since spring with no issues. Just made sure I cleaned the rubber real well with alcohol.

Has anyone with the weather tech in channel deflectors noticed the top of the window being scratched?

@T Bone are yours the low profile? Have any pictures from directly behind the truck? I would like a set but I'm not sold on the low profile but I also don't want them sticking out super far like you sometimes see on older trucks
