Question Windshield Sun Visor?
What kind of visor do you use? Custom made or just buy it off the shelf?

The problem with the ones they sell at auto stores, walmart etc., is that its either too short or too long...

I just order a Cover Craft custom fit shade from Auto Anything for $49. Got one for my Volvo a few years ago and it works great

Hmmm, got mine too and not so pleased with fit. I've got about an 1.5in gap at the bottom of the window, on each side. Better, fit at the top. I'm thinking they pulled the wrong box off the shelf or something-checking the box tonight

Who manufactures that one??

I'm not cheap but I think spending $50 is quite excessive just for a shade... I rather take an off-the-shelf longer one and spend an extra minute fitting it on the window.

HeatShield makes custom fit visors. Dealers in San Diego carry these and I had one for my accord coupe. It fit perfect.

Picked mine up at K-Mart. Auto expressins Sunshade. The ones that collapses for easy storage.

Less than 10 bucks, works like a charm. Pretty good fit.

Its not a snug fit but its okay. It takes me about 1 minute to fit on the window, which I think are 45 seconds too many (especially since the fit is not exactly up to my standards).

This thread is kinda stupid and I regret starting it...
