Most of the old car parts vendors (Langs Model T Parts is one) have a miserable-quality molded plastic prism on a suction cup. This will serve OK!

I was lucky to find a rare NOS ground glass glue-to-flat-glass prism on ebay some years ago.

I'll try and get a picture of it up here soon. It's really neat. I may try to mount it to the Scion windsheild-- but that's curved glass. Epoxy mounts the old hunk of glass very well and securely.

thanks for that. I just wrote them, too. I want mine in either green or blue. Amber, smoke, green should be the primary choices, agreed.

please drop lines to that company. Ask for xB visors to be made available

Please let's bug Lund for transparent visors! If Lund won't someone else -could-

I don't see any reason why a motivated guy could not make his own. It would require some know-how to vac bag heated plexiglas to hand-made mold. The attachment is the engineering challenge. How do they do it in Japan? We reallly need to see pics of a JDM windshield visor
