EZE Gutters

How far down the sides of the window should EZE gutter extend ?
The directions that came with the EZE gutters states it should extend to even with the bottom of the window but pictures on the internet and this forum show it extending approx 6” down , half way down , and all the way down.
I have a 25 ft roll , trying to find a way to make it work but if I have to order more , so be it

You really do not need to extend then down at all, just cut then long enough so that the water does not run down on the window area. They are flexible when hot and some people round the edges vs a straight cut. The new Escapes have then already applied over the frameless windows and they are straight and just cover the hinge area. Try black it may look batter.

Like Padlin I went down each side about 3 or 4 inches. Be careful on the rear passenger side window, if it’s aimed to tight down I found the water streams down the side of The trailer and in to the battery vent. I just cut a straight piece and attached it over the vent.

Thanks ; After giving the rear window a good perusal I can see where the water could drain down on the battery vent . If you hadn’t mentioned it I would have never seen it .

Just tilt your trailer a little forward, that is what I do and it keeps all the water going down the front where there is no window

Ya, I don’t know if water actually entered the battery vent, I didn’t see any water in the battery box it’s self, but , I didn’t like it. So a straight piece across the top over the vent, took care of that concern.
