What is this nobby thing on my front windows?

[Alpine]

While I was visiting a friend recently, we were talking outside his house and next to my car. He then asked what this nobby thing on both my front windows is for. Hmm...I had no idea...he got me there. So what is it for???

stops the window from "blowing out" when you have the windows just open

[bennjamin]

yup - what he said.

When the windows are almost up there can be a big pressure difference and windows can blow out as said.

serious ?? i didnt know that.. thats cool info.. i always thought they were holders for window visors..

yeah i read this awhile back

when your going down the highway at 110kms it stops the windows from "blowing out" If you have them open say 10mm or so

What do you mean by blowing out...literally?? How come other cars do not have it then?

[EK4R]

think they refering to the sound it makes like a whistle / rattle noise?

[bigjo5]

Honda even thought of that, if you peel back the top rubber from the door frame theres a series of countersunk holes to screw the Visors into.
