Default JDM EP3 Window Visors

Anybody know where I can get the installation instructions for these? I'm having a hell of a hard time figuring out how to install these. Thanks.

I'm thinking about buying these. Please post a link or make a write up when you figure it out.

Dude it's not hard. Just make sure you wipe down the outer part of the door with rubbing alcohol so the tape will stick better.

I ended up not using the 2 middle clips because it was bending the visor in a funny direction, so I only used the front and back clip. And then obviously the sticky tape.

I know its not hard its just confusing which way the clips are supposed to mount. From the picture above though it looks as if they go beneath rubber trim above the door.

for the visors the double sided tape does most, if not all, the work of holing on the visors. The clips are there, but they really dont add that much more support.

Pics of my visors from the inside pics are kinda crappy i couldnt find my camera so i had to use my phone. Pretty much the clip goes between the rubber window piece and the door. I removed the rubber piece in some pics.


Here is the first clip that goes on the outside edge of the door.

Hope these pics help i found when i installed them it was eaiser with two people so as i removed the two side tape he pushed down to make sure they stick well.

That definitely helps. Thanks a lot. I'm gonna put these on when I get home. Also got the OEM moonroof visor but the instructions don't make any damn sense.

The mount just kinda hold the inside of the moon roof. It goes between the roof and the weather stripping on the moon roof. I removed mine because i didnt like how it mad the moon roof so much smaller when it was open. But it did make the car a lot quieter with the roof open
