I've had mine on for roughly 5 months now, for dust, would not trust it (or the OEM vent locations) for fjording.

Question for others with the knock off version - have you had issues with the high mount along the windshield being too far forward? If I back out the rubber bumper to function, it's only in by a couple threads and will rattle out. Alternatively, and my current situation, is the high mount floats in place and blows around at highway speeds.

Have you had any issues with the middle tube caving in on itself? If not, could you link which one you bought?

This is the one I bought from Amazon.ca in August. Had it off last week to replace my batteries and confirmed no collapsed duct, even without any type of spacer or insert.

Got it, mine is the same but different brand, assume they’re all imported from China anyway, collapsed and cracked on the driver side seam 1st day. Decided I’ll just leave it as is, seal it up with some waterproof tape, and then decide on AEV/ARB. For $100 I can’t be too upset but expected just a little longer life out of it.
