Considering you have a GE. If not, they have visors for GDs also.

Here ya' go:

Honda Door Visors Fit - Bernardi Honda Parts and Accessories


Honda Fit Accessories - Genuine 2009-2010 Honda Fit Exterior Accessories (scroll down the page)


OEM Honda Fit Door Visors - 2009 Fit Exterior


Door Visors Honda Fit - $53.33


Take your pic (and there are other places besides those)... check shipping from all of those places. The best price on an item doesn't always mean best price once you calculate shipping.

BTW, it's amazing what one can find if they search really well!

Enjoy!

I bought mine from the dealer when I bought my car. When I looked at it from the dealer it looked like I had to deal with removing rubber trims and stuff so I just paid them $100 (installed) to get it done right. I know, dealers don't do everything right but just didn't wanna go thru the pain installing by myself and getting chances of getting window leaked. Me likey!!!

all depends if u want authentic OEM or Mugen ones. looong debate over which is better. i went the cheapo route and went with Mugen "style" replicas on Ebay.. had em for about 2-3 weeks now. no problems whatsoever. (saved pretty good money) tho i did hear horror stories of either leaking so i tacked on a 2nd strip of 3M tape..

How do you guys like the OEM accessory ones? Do they feel cheap or do they seem to be a decent long-lasting mod?

What are you looking for? They're an OEM part, just plastic visors it's not like there's any technology involved. I'm betting in the long run they will outlast most copies just because they're OEM so you won't have to worry about fading or brittleness.

I got my Mugen visors from JHPUSA.com - JDM Honda Parts - Welcome! - JHPUSA.

If you're looking for OEM visors, go to Genuine Honda Accessories at Discount Prices - Honda Product Information, Videos and News

I just ordered some from ebay for $60 shipped brand new in the box. I personally do not have a clue how to install the things when I get them. I am sure their is a DYI online somewhere.

The only ones I am seeing offered in the states, and please correct me if I am wrong, are the Mugen ones and the USDM OEM visors... What about the JDM OEM visors? Nobody seems to talk about them or offer them for that matter. What gives?

I got them today. I went to the website you recommended me. The window visor vid they have is for the older fit. The newer fit visors deals with some sort of clips. Its even more confusing. At least i have the official honda manual for how to install it.

That's cool...you should share since some of us are too stupid to install things without step by step full color visuals, lol.

I emailed collegehillshonda.com asking if they would make a diy but they said there were no plans as of yet.

Honda's instructions are confusing to me.

Anyone know and wish to share?

Honda Door Visors Fit - Bernardi Honda Parts and Accessories

instructions can be downloaded here: the 2009 and 2010 links

I've installed these on my fit, it wasn't too difficult...the clips seem to be more for keeping things lined up because the visors are basically attached by the tape anyways.
