bigalpha Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Are there replacements available that extend? What about ones that can pivot at the roof? I find that it does a pretty poor job of covering any part of the side window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScubaDadMiami Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) Almost daily, I spend about 30 minutes with the sun right between where the visor ends and the driver's side window frame. This was a definite miss. I wonder what is a good solution that doesn't look bad. Edited July 9, 2013 by ScubaDadMiami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I spend a lot of time on the interstate and I always have to take a paper and stick it under the vanity mirror flap. It's a poor man's giant visor. It's a PITA to do it though.

salsaguy Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) the extending (push/pull in out to get more coverage to block more sun) was/is my favorite feature of my previous 2004.5 Passat and my current 2012 Passat.I don't think i could live without those.sad that more car mfgs don't install these as std as surely they can't cost that much more that the non extending ones.this will be a smart mood of you mod of you do it.

Hollywoodtx Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 You can always put an eyebrow in like it did. Take a look at my gallery. I love it! gehrls and Libra1224 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWBarrett Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 In my Ranger, I bought a visor pouch thing that slips on with two elastic straps.Never used the storage at all, but I can slip it outward to fill that gap when I've got it pivoted to the side.(I think I put a ruler in it for some stiffness so I could use it with the window open too.) But in the C-Max, the visors are taller and at a strange angle, so I don't know if that trick would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
