no troubles with them at all. the only thing i can say about them is make sure they are all the way down and alligned before u close the door. if not, (like my buddy did when he was drunk) they will not match up and u'll be smacking the inside of the door right above where the lock part should engage smoothly. but no wind noise, rattles or anything of that nature.
