What are these things called and are they available?
I have a 2004 that I pretty much love, depite the problems I have had over the last 4 years.
However, one thing that annoys me to no end is the constant stream of water that flys in your window when it's raining.
I smoke (yeah, I know) and therefore leave the window cracked about an 1/2 inch or so. I am also tired of getting a face ful of water pouring down when I get out of the car after a rain storm. And, it gets the headliner wet. Are there gutters or channels that can be installed?

I have the same problem. In fact, it's been a bit of a problem in all the cars I've owned over the past 20 years.
Not so much the waterfall when at a stop so much as while driving. I also smoke and like/need to vent the car while smoking and find that openning the window enough to actually vent allows a lot of water in.
The obvious problem is the integration and stylization of the gutter channel on the roof as part of the fluidity of design. I wish they's make these channels a bit deeper but they dont.
Still, I guess it beats the appearance of those welded-on ribs that ran up and down the roof line on each side like most car roofs of the 60's and earlier.
Better still would be the triangular vent window of the past in an updated and sleeker power version.

I use acrylic wind and rain deflectors for that purpose in my other cars, like these:

That doesn't help much for the Crossfire, though, because (1) I can't find any that would fit; and (2) they would look just awful. But hey, where I live it never rains anyway....
