Hey sorry about the long delay. I've been really busy lately. The dealership drove to my house and gave me the RX back before I could take pictures. Sorry about that. They told me it would take 2 days and they come pick it up the next days. Anyways I can explain out it looked. It didnt have the homelink garage door opener. the same was similar for the RX visor and had the little pull out thing to make it longer too. The thickness was about the same too. I got a loaner '03 IS300 right now. I dont know if you asked about that or not but those visors are almost completely different and the size is thickness is about half of the RX. The homelink buttons are on the opposite side too. Sorry about the pictures though.

doesnt look like they'll fit. The spots where the end of the visor connects to lock it into place is a lot bigger on the ES than the RX

Also the RX visors look like they are more squarish and the ES ones are little bit more rounded.

yea it seems like the ES visors are more rounder, but i dont remember them being like that at all. i was hoping the ES pic is off or distorted, maybe they are a bit smaller or the same size of the RX;s and will fit. as far as the mounting clip point, i can always move on the hook adapter on the ceiling. wow i need stock RX visors desperatly. can someone help me find some

Ok i got back in touch with the original guy i was supposed to buy the rx visors from. i found him through ebay even though he didnt list them on ebay. he was selling something else so i asked if he had any. well he gave me all the info and im gonna mail him out a money order. i dont want to give him my credit card info over the phone, and i dont have a paypal account, but anway i hope he is legit. it seemed like alot of miss communication. but anway, so we shall see what happens,
one question. are money orders safe? if i dont get my product do i have some type of gaurantee with the money order, and also do they have to wait for the money order to clear when they receive it>? fill me in.

I believe a money order is like a cashiers check. It's almost as good as cash - a guaranteed check. There is no need to wait for it to clear. At the same time, it gives you less control over the situation once he gets the money.

The arm length and mounting angle looks different between the two, and not just because the pictures are at different angles.
