Does anyone make a good replacement for the factory sun visors on the '08 Coupes? My 2 concerns are:

1. Cannot see out of the car when I actually use the visor to block sun; and

2. The Visor will not swivel to the side to block side sun.

[Yes, I did "search" and found mostly posts about people removing the visors from convertibles]

Thanks for any ideas!

You could run a dark tint strip across the windsheild, but I don't have any suggestions for the side unless you wanted to do that also.

Looks like the only pseudo solution is to install a 1" seat lowering kit in an attempt to make the Visor actually useful. Really a bad design and only usable when parked or at stop lights when the car is not moving.

Just take out the visors. 1 minute job. (You will never put them back in)

It makes the interior seem much more spacious, and as you have mentioned they block too much of your vision when down.

As for the side vision, I sometimes slide a business card inside my glasses temple. Looks dorky, but is quite effective when running long distances with the sun at the side.
