Default DIY: How to install eBay window visors

Bought these off eBay for my dad's RX and decided to take pictures for those that might need help. It didn't come with instructions but it's pretty straight forward. Not bad for $60

Here are the pictures. Remember to clean the area before installing.

1) This is what came in the box.


2) First take the metal tabs and insert them in-between the molding strip. One of the far left and one on the far right.


3) I used painter's tape to line up the visors before removing the double-sided tape underneath


4) These are the set of screws you'll need for to insert through the metal tabs.


5) The way it sandwiches into the metal tab.


6) There's 2 holes on each visor that the plastic screws into.


7) Lexus family

Great DIY

Just curious, since I'm not from a particularly sunny area. What are the benefits of window visors?

Not bad looking and certainly much cheaper than the JDM visors I have. ericsan, they're great for air flow when driving without getting blasted and a safer way to keep the windows cracked during the summer. Only downside is cleaning underneath. I have to roll the windows down. But it's easy enough to do using the key in the fob.
