before buying my ls460 ,i visit 4 of them ,4 out of 4 has well visor
which tricks me to think well visor comes with the car by lexus
today i drove 200KM on highway, if over 110 ,i think the wind noise is bit high considering im inside a ls460, which i absolutely hear nothing drive locally.
then i realize it might be the well visor. or the rain guard /reflector
i search the pic of ls460 on google, then i realize maybe this car comes with no well visor at all

my question is if i remove them , the wind noise will lower for sure,but will it be noticeable?

the sole purpose for me to buy a ls460 is because i used to drive a prius,which a great car in terms of saving money, but the noise the engine makes and tire wind noise is driving me crazy. i feel like i drive outside of my car, as i dont need the will visor anyway, i am wondering if it worth to do so, since it will have sticky residue left, i have to hire a professional to do it, if the noise reduction is so small that i cant notice, then it is not worth doing it
thx!
my wife drove it away , cant take pic, but it is exact the same as the photo i found on line, and it says well visor on it, i believe the well is the brand

looks the same

 

Please post some pictures of your "visors" so that we can better understand your concern.

 

Initially, I was wondering the same. But after a little while it dawned on me that they might be window vent visors/deflectors. What are the odds that all 4 he looked at had them??

maybe u guys are more familiar with name "rain guard" , but it actually says " well visor"on them

 

it is rain guard. and every ls460 i check has the same brand ,it print " well visor "on them , which lead me to believe this is from factory or as least an upgrade from dealer

 

Haha. Thats my car. I had Wellvisor first but switched to Weather Tech brand. Thats what is on the photo. I can say haven't noticed a noise difference with these on. I still like them and a good way to let fresh air in on a wet day. Wellvisor just didn't fit well enough. I will say they are more flexable than WeatherTech.

 

Take those ugly things off. They remind me of the scene in "Contact" when they use the alien plans to build the drop capsule but add a chair inside for "safety" - which ends up causing a ridiculous vibration until it breaks and flies to the ceiling.

 

i dont need a rain guard anymore , so i really dont care the compare one rain guard or another
so when u drive with one, and without one, on the highway , do u notice a difference?

 

I have had them on for 3 years now and i can say i do not notice a sound difference. If you hate them then take them off. You make your own decision.

 

I'm glad this thread came along. I had been planning on buying some window visors to try to stop or minimise the wind vibrations or "shuddering" that happens at speed. Now that I know they don't do anything, I won't waste my money.
