Installing window visors, What should i clip them on to? Options

[eggman40]

Im going to install my visors tommorow but my car is at the shop so i cant see it right now. I dont wanna put them on wrong and have them fly off on the way home. They have all the mounting clips on them so its just a matter of putting them on. do they just clip to the rubber trim at the top of the window? or to the metal? once cliped do i need to bend the clips so they hold? any help would be great thanks!

if you mean the inside sunvisors, they are screwed on. they screw on and mount to the top part of the frame of the car.

I think he is talking about the rain guards that are on the outside of you car window.


But I have no idea how to install them.

I'm not sure, I've never installed these, but I've thought about getting them too. When I looked into them a bit at a dealership, it appeared that you just wedge them in between the roof and the window channeling (the part above the weather stripping). The guards have a thin lip that goes down into that part.

Edit: I guess it's "tomorrow" now so I'm a day late & a dollar short... crap! So, where'd you get your visors, anyway? Hoping to avoid paying dealership prices...

I have these. All you do is look on the visor, there are clips that are used to hook on the weatherstripping of the window, they do not clip on but just hang there. Use strong 3m double sided tape, its best to use the thinner ones that match the width of the visor to make it clean. Super strong hold, no worries to fly off. Make sure you strategize how you peel off the tape because it matters, you'll see.
