Anybody try the ebay Visors?

I came upon this on ebay.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Window-Visors-Sun-Rain-Wind-Deflector-for-Honda-Fit-Sedan-4dr-2014-2015-/151430380451?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AHonda%7CModel%3AFit&hash=item2341f43ba3&vxp=mtr

I've tried it on my other car.
Fitment is good only problem is they are not clear. So you can't see thru them. They are made from a black plastic.

Also the colour has changed, they are purplish now but not noticeable if the windows are tinted.
I'd still buy them though...

I just received my visors from that same seller. I will warn you that you will be disappointed. The cuts were way off which exposed paint midway through the top of the visor. Poor quality and it is not completely black, its like a shade of grey. Save your money and learn from my experience. If you would like pictures of me holding it in place to show the fitment, send me a PM.

Aloha!

Having done a lot of mods on the GK, I've learned that a majority of the eBay stuff don't work on our cars, aren't exact fits, or don't look great at all. It's better to deal with Amazon since at least people put in reviews AND easier to get refunds.

I installed the OEM visors this weekend and will say they are really nice. The plastic seems thick and durable, the install is easy, and the adhesive was freaking strong. The hardest part of the install was getting the backing off of the adhesive. Plus, the cut is perfect because they are made for the car.

I paid $100 from Honda, Acura and Toyota Accessories. I think with shipping they were like $115. Just some food for thought.

Hope you also installed the 2 retaining clips/visor. I found that the hardest part. Making them clip on the top of each window rail. These clips provide firm support in addition to the adhesive.
