How bad do rear quarter window louvers affect vision?
I just bought my 2011 camaro. Everyone says its hard to see out of. I see where everyone is coming from but it doesnt bother me that much. I really want to add camaro window louvers. My friend has some on his mustang. Not comparing the cars, im just saying I LOVE the look they provide. how bad do they affect vision??

I don't have them, but I can't imagine it would make any difference. I have to break my neck to see out those windows from the driver's seat, so I just use properly - adjusted mirrors.

I have to look out the right rear quarter window sometimes, but it's practically useless. One could probably get used to not having it.

Basically passengers in your back seat won't be able to see as well. Those quarter windows are almost worthless for the driver. Covering them up doesn't make much of a difference.

Theres one road where I live that I unfortunately have to use them. If you don't regularly use them when you're driving then you should be good.

IMO the only rear quarters I have seen are cheap plastic look and degrade the appearance. If you want the real nice deal you have to go MRT louvers for the rear.
 as others said the rear quarters are hardly looked out except occasionally to spy for blind spot idiots. And some of the plastic covers for the quarter windows are black but also see through if you look enough there is more than one brand out there

Have them on mine; it's like having tint on you're window's, they don't limit your view/vision out them much

I have the quarter window louvers almost since car new ... I also have added small stick-on round convex blind spot mirror to passenger side rear view mirror and has been very helpful and after having for as long as I have I depend on the mirror and would have even if I did not have quarter louvers

I have my quarter windows covered and I have no problems driving. Only time there is a problem is backing up either way and you cannot see on that side of the car.
