Icon3 Fake window visors for EF hatch back..

Does anyone know who makes fake visors for EF's besides the cheap, ill-fitting ones that they sell on craigslist?
I tried a set of those out and one side fit 8/10 and the other side fit 5/10.

I want to know of a company that makes replicas, stick on is okay, but that fit at least decent.

Im not gonna shell out $250 on OEM ones sorry.

::EDIT::


part number.

Ive never put weathertechs on one of our cars but i sell them daily for new vehicles and they are by far the best made aftermarket vent visor! Their molded floor mats a damn good too for the applications they have doubt they have them for our cars.

Weathertech makes nice products. I have their all weather floor mats in my daily (Camry) and also my civic. The window visors mount inside the window track, no tape or clips. I had a set of visors on my old daily (Matrix) and they fit ok. I'm tempted to buy a set of visors for my civic but they are for the 89 civic doors, which are different then the 90-91 doors.

Weathertech ones mount in channel, meaning they mount on the part that the window touches.
I helped a friend install a set on his 2003 Civic and the fitment and appearance was great. No glue needed just flex them, and they pop in. They wont fly out or anything because they dont have tape, theyre on pretty secure.

I got the Auto Vent Shades (AVS) from O'Reilleys for $39.99+tax. I called the company and they said they dont make them for 88-91 Civics and the guy at the parts counter said the same thing. I asked a different lady and she said they have 3 sets in the ware house LOL.

Fitment is 9/10 which is superb for a non-OEM part. I HIGHLY recommend these!! They are also pretty thick, not all flimsy like the eBay/Craigslist ones. Only downfall is they dont have 3M tape but the tape that it comes with is pretty secure. Also, the rear view mirrors have to be loosened and a piece of the visor goes in between the door and the mirror which is good for added security.

PICS OR GTFO.



AVS in the fore front. OEM in the back ground


The part number in case they tell you they dont carry them.

AVS, same ones you got. Buddy has them on his hatch and they fit quite well for not being OEM. I was super surprised.

I would want these for my ed3 and ed6 but I'm worried someone would ****** them, and break them in the process . I made up my mind and just keep it clean so haters have nothing to take.
