Toyota Camry: 1998 Camry rain gutters?

1998 Camry rain gutters?
Hi All,
I drive a 1998 Camry LE in a northern state. Frequently in the winter
time snow and ice will accumulate on the roof of the car. As the car
warms up and the ice melts water drips on the arm rest if I open the
drivers side window - even a crack. Apparently Toyota didn't think rain
gutters were a good idea. Has anyone had this problem and if so how can
it be solved? I have seen stick-on wind deflectors that might work but
was wondering if there may be something better out there. Any ideas
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
NRJ

Check out the Weathertech vent visors at McNeil Accessories -- no sticky
tape is needed!

We Northerners usually learn young to brush ALL snow and loose ice off ALL
of the car before driving off.

This Northerner has always driven cars with rain gutters and never had
to worry about water dripping from the roof right onto the power window
controls....
And what do I do when it rains?

Well, I drive a 99 Camry and have had no trouble, winter or summer with
water dripping from the roof onto anything. Go figure.

My 99 will drip water into the car when the window is open--it can't be good
for the window controls if there is a lot come in or if the window is left
open.
I think the answer is the rain shields that were mentioned in an earlier
post on this topic.
Speaking of moisture, several days ago the sun seemed nice and warm despite
the freezing temp so I reached up and pushed the button to slide open the
moon roof. Never looked up at it and I was inundated with a ton of snow.
What a mess! Never open the roof with the inner shield closed is my lesson
there. I felt like a real fool going home soaking wet. Told my wife about it
and she said I was really acting my age.

good
despite
it
The standard comment, eh? Doctor, it hurts when I raise my arm. Doctor
replies: then don't raise your arm (or open your window when it is wet out).
