Sun Visor

Does someone have a workable solution for the ridicuous sun visor in my 04 MCS? The sun is killing me.

I do not want to tint my windows.

Regards, Mark

How about a static cling type of tint that you could remove when the sun sets or do you like driving with the windows down?

Quick and Stupid -

I keep a pack of post-it notes in the door pocket and just stick a note on the window right where the glare is the worst.

It works, and I don't forget to pick up the milk on the way home

How about writing "mini sunvisor" on the post-it so passerbys can see it!

MY SOLUTION IS ONE OF THOSE VISORS FROM THE BABY SECTION AT TARHET. IT IS A SUN SHIELD WITH ONE SUCTION CUP IN THE MIDDLE. i ONLY HAVE ONE AND WE SWAP IT FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHO EVER NEEDS IT. i ALSO GOT A SUNSHADE THAT IS FOR YOUR WINDSHIELD FROM WALMART BUT IT IS MADE OF 2 SQUARES. THEY ARE INDEPENDEND THE KIND THAT IS MADE OF MATERIAL WITH WIRE ON THE PARIMETER. THEY ARE BLACK WITH A SILVER COATING. THEY FIT PERFECTLY BETWEEN THE SUNROOF AND THE STOCK SUN SHIELD. BLOCKS OUT THE SUN FROM UP ABOVE 100%. GREAT FROM WHEN YOU DON'T WANT THE SUN ON YOU. AND SINCE IT IS BLACK YOU CAN'T TELL IT IS THERE.
