Door Visors, anyone have them?

I was thinking of getting some door visors. Has anyone installed them, how easy is it? Are they worth the effort?

I have the Mugen ones and love them. The guys that put them on for me had no problem and they've been installed since 2007. The Honda ones are nice too - the Mugen ones have clips which hold them on plus the adhensive strips.

Please go to Honda Fit Accessories - Genuine 2009-2010 Honda Fit Exterior Accessories. There is an intruction there. It is easy to install. If you need help, please let me know.

I am looking for MUGEN Visors, not OEM. I found one from eBay. The seller is a Honda dealer in Taiwan. MUGEN visors is OEM in Taiwan.

I had some OEM's installed last Saturday at the dealership.

$75 installed...........I could barely get them for that on ebay, after adding shipping.

They turned out nice.................I like them.

Don't get anything glue-on.

I order things for my car from e-bay all the time and never had a problem with quality. Just check out the sellers rep and make sure no one has had any problems.Your only going to be sure of authetic Mugen from a company that carrys them. I ordered mine from Kings Motor Sport and they shipped them really quickly also right now if you order visors from Kings you get a free Mugen desk calendar.

By the way the OEM visors ARE glue on. Those clips are just to hold and align the visors in place while you remove the backing of the 3M tape. I have the OEM visors, piece of cake to install. Took me 20 minutes and they look great. I leave the windows opened just under where the visors end to keep the car color without letting water get in in case it rains.

I just ordered some this week. Should get them by Monday. Pretty stoked! I think they look great and enhance the overall appearance of your car as well as providing functionality. It doesn't rain much where I live but I'm from Washington state where it always rains. If I ever move back, these would get a lot of use!

I'd like the function they offer, but I can't help feeling they detract from the sporty look the car has without them- especially with stock, non tinted windows. Still on the fence.

Funny I think it actually gives it a sleeker, sportier look! One thing I like about the Honda visors (USDM, JDM and Mugen) is that they extend over the B-pillar so that they appear continuous at a glance. That's one thing that's always bothered me when I see them...that appearance of an add-on part stuck on each window.
