Installation could be a bit of a pain, but it's all worth it in the end. I used painter's tape to mark a horizontal line from front to rear. This made it much easier!

Peace,

Let me know if you notice that the way the pics look in the manual, is not the same in real life.

For some reason and I might be doing it wrong, the front visor doesn't go all the way around like it is show in the manual and also online. For some reason it looks to short.

Thanks, that helps me alot. Did you have to bend the front visor to get it closer to the mirror.

I just installed them today. I took awhile to figure out exactly where the clips went but after that, it was easy sailing.

I didn't really have to bend the clips that much if at all to get them lined up with the hose in the visor.

The visor lines up with the mirror perfectly as shown in the instructions.

It adds to it. I"m getting wade slim-in channel wind visors. That go into the window channel up inside the door rather then attaching it on the outside of the door. I'll post pics once I get'em.

E-SAM is the man! These visors are one high quality product. I had the slin in-channel ones and they did not block the sun and did not create any airflow. Why would anyone design a visor to go into a window channel? I guess if a car has no window frame. Trust me, a leap of faith, get the E-SAM's and you will be happy once the money is spent.

Default ...ESAM's PHOTOS:

Here are some photos of ESAM's Visors. Also will be posted in a window rattling thread because they hold the window in place with the rubber flange/squigge/thingy.





If the space shuttle had window visors, they would be ESAM's!

What is the difference between the ESAM and the JDM OEM visors -- besides the $40 price difference?
