Default quick Q for those with window visors in 2is..

Do the window visors add to the already existing blind spot when making left turns?

Im worried that the addition of the visors will make it even harder to see pedestrians crossing. They look see-through, but what about at night when it's dark?

thanks,

-Adr

the window visors does not interfere with seeing when making turns or looking for pedestrians...unless you're sitting really high to the point where your head touches the roof...than that's a different story.

I agree with those guys. Installed mine a few days ago and haven't had any problems with it seeing wise.
