AMV8 Sun Visor

[uuf361]

Driving along happily yesterday (back to the dealer) the sun was out (a rare occurrence I know) and it was on my side.

Went to grab the sun visor from the front to the side to find it didn't move

Am I being thick (it's a distinct possibility) or is there no side visor

[ariel]

nope. deliberate omission, problem too hard to solve

[Lucozade]

Got 2 on mine, one on each side, work perfectly fine.

[bogie]

nope - no move to the side facility AFAIK

you ever seen a Brit sportscar with any sun visors recently ? Our TVR dosent have them, nor the Lotus ...i think they are trying to tell us something about our weather LOL

Related sun-visor query. We go to all the trouble of spec'ing our intereior to be colour co-ordinated - I have a lovely deep red alcantra headlining, with matching visors - and then some Euro bureau idiot decides that there has to be a sticker telling me there's an airbag ! I know there is !

These things are an eysore, on both visors, and are on the outside so they show all the time. Has anyone actually taken the bold step of removing them ? I live in fear of ripping one off and finding it leaves glue all over the alcantra

You'll find TVRs with V8 engines do have them

Yes I pulled them off as soon as I saw them and pleased to say they came off easily without leaving a mark or glue. Looks better in an instant!

OK, thanks for the encouragement. Here goes

Look carefully in Sag bogie, they are there. Granted they are about the width of a school ruler and thus not a whole lot of use, but hey... they tried

Oh well, will have to make sure the prescription sunnies are always to hand in the car then

LOL - that just shows how often Ive actually used it in sunny weather (its my other halfs primary car!)

I thought the Vantage ones were quite quaint ...and yes, the stickers got peeled off on day 1

They're off and in the bin. Fair amount of fluff attached but no damage or residue. Cheers
