They wen't any easier to install than any other blade I have ever installed. Every other blade I have installed clicks when you lock it in, these didn't, which scared me a bit. Yes they have the door thingie.
As for performance, it didn't rain here today, go figure, after I install something I want to try. I am sure I will be able to review them on my truck soon though.

I ordered the Valeo's and installed them Tuesday. They are amazing so far.
Silent as they go across the glass, clears the water at any temp or speed driving, dirty water kicked up from other cars doesn't need to be rinsed with washer fluid. A couple wipes across the glass and it's clear as could be.

I'll say the same here. Plus they look soo clean!
In all honesty..its hard to say if they're light years better than cheapies from Walmart at this point. Don't they all work amazing the first month or so? The proof will be 6 months down the road for me. But as of right now...I'm really happy with them.
