If you havent already installed them, here goes:

On each visor there should be 6 brackets (i think) each bracket has a tiny countersunk screw on the top of the bracket.

Now wind your window down, and peel back the outer door seal, and peel down the inner seal, to expose the door frame. The seal if never touched before, will be stiff as anything, spray some WD-40 inder the seal and use a wide spatula or paint scraper to lift the seal from the frame.

On the top of the door frame you should see 5 or 6 counter sunk holes that correspond to the brackets on the visor.

Offer up the visors from below and line up the brackets with the holes. You'll need to offer them up from below at and angle and then pop them into place. You'll see how they line up and just pop them in.

The tiny screws are aluminium, so becareful not to lose them as they wont stick to a magnetized-tip screwdriver.

Replace seals and voila! JDM-ness acheived.

Note: If they are all dull, before you install them, get some light cutting compound and with an orbital buffer give them a buff and polish, mine where skanky as so i gave them a quick buzz with orby and they came up mint! I cleaned the inside of each visor with a prepwash wipe then Mr Sheened them for added sparkle.
