Hello everyone, I would like to know if anyone have added Vent Visor on their F55. I've always had them on all my previous vehicles and I'm surprised they are not all that common on the Mini.
Anyways I found some on ebay but would like to hear from actual users that have them how well do they stick to the rubber in the door frame and how's the fit and finish.
Here's a picture for reference only is not my actual Mini.
I've had a set on my '15 F55 from WeatherTech. They have held up extremely well seeing as how I've had them installed for roughly 6 years now. I will mention that I may look into replacing them soon since it seems the driver's rear adhesive is beginning to lose it's hold and will occasionally fall out of the channel with the window down. I may also just see about removing the adhesive and apply some 3M double sided tape to refresh it since the visors themselves don't have any cracks or anything wrong with them. Attached is a picture of my F55 from back in '19
@Banner28 I didn't know Weathertech had them and they're in-channel. Thank you for the reply I guess I'll be ordering from them, I think in-channel would look a whole lot better.

@bluonyx It may be worth keeping an eye out to see if they produce a set for the F60 Countryman. Alternatively, maybe one of us could reach out to WeatherTech to see if they're going to or need a test vehicle to laser measure and produce a set for. @Roman726 Could be worth a shot. I've had a set like that on an old Mazda. Only thing I remember from those is everything about them comes down to how well you prep the surface since they're mounted outside of the window channel. I also remember having to replace those type multiple times because they kept cracking and breaking. The brand I had on my old Mazda was the AVS brand Visors.
How similar are the front doors on the F55 vs those on the F56? Weathertech makes a set for the F55 but doesn't show that they have anything for the F56 when I checked just now.

Door frames!!!
The F56 doesnt have them.
Thats how the visors work, by sticking to the top of the door frame.

Well, that would make a lot of sense lol. I actually didn't know the F55 had full frame doors! Nifty! (yes, I missed the pictures because I was mobile and not looking)
I need to find a set for the F56 because it makes a huge difference on road trips for me.
