    Window Visors

    Ok, so I'm assuming this is the right section for this. How difficult is it to install window visors? I have glanced through the D.I.Y. section and didn't see it. Thanks in advance for any help given.

    If they're non-OEM, 5 mins.
    If they're OEM, 10 mins.

        If they're non-OEM, they're held on my 3m tape. You simply stick them on there.

          Ok cool, thanks man! The ones I got are from Ebay but they are made by a OEM manufacture supposedly, I hoping they are. Plus It was a good deal, so if not I'm not too much green.

            More like 15 minutes per side for OEM, and that's knowing what you're doing. You gotta peel back a large part of the weather stripping and seals without tearing them. Then getting everything back in place, nice and tight and tear free. Might be shorter with a coupe.

                it's not scary, you just have to take your time and make sure you don't tear rubber. later.

                    It's doubtful that these are the clip on style. Only OEM are like that. A lot of OEM visors on other cars are 3M taped on too lol.

                    If there 3M tape, it's very easy as mentioned.

                        Right on, glad everything went ok. I'm gonna hijack your thread ok lol. It's related to visors and dont I think what im posting isnt thread worthy on it's own.

                        If you guys can tell the difference between these pics I'll post moar.

                          Wow. You took a chance driving over that concrete curb. It could have annihilated your sir lip, dude!

                          But back to the topic, your car looks better with the sun roof visor.

                            It's at my apartment parking lot so I knew I could clear it lol. I cleared it after adjusting the height last. It clears by about 1/8"-1/4".

                            I'm just thinking of ways to spruce her up. I noticed that no luxury sedans have these visors, probably because it messes up the paint underneath. Makes the car appear shorter now too. It is very functional, but is a pain when cleaning the car.

                            Kinda looks like bald to me now, like someone toupee got blown off lol


                            Edited out the visor hehehe
