How much did you pay for them? Hopefully not too much, because you can get WeatherTech visors for about $45 and they look really clean, slip right into the window channel, and you can put them in or take them out whenever you want. This is what I plan to get.

It was a fair price. Contact Leo @ jdmspecperf.com for more info if you'd like to purchase a pair, he still has some left.

I think that's the most essential reason for having these jdm visors

i know leo and he has good prices.. i'm not sure about weather techs but the honda access visors are perfect fit.

take your rubber window seal off and you'll notice that the clips sit in the groove in a certain way. the two clips at the end will screw in with the provided screws. once you get the brackets in, put your rubber seal back on and place the visor on by lining up the brackets with the holes on your visor. it's probably best to measure the distance of the holes before you put your rubber seal back on. the seal prevents the brackets from freely sliding back and forth..so measure first!...

then use the supplied plastic rivets to hold the visor down.

The Weather Tech visors are a perfect fit...They supposedly use them for OE suppliers. Got mine for $45 shipped, fit like a charm and work great. Took me maybe 5 minutes to install. It's kinda sad to see people overpay for goods that aren't worth the asking price.

This is the only pic I have of them on my car...Unlike the HT.com majority, I don't have the time to go around doing photoshoots of my 10 year old car.

If you want a closer look, add .orig.jpg to the end of the link.

As I promised I would post pictures after I finished installing these visors.

Here is the link. Enjoy!

Looks like the WeatherTech visors aren't as dark smoked as the Honda ones are. I had dark smoke visors on my old car and it made the A-pillar blind spot about twice as wide.

Another for the WeatherTechs.

A-pillar blind spot??? I wasn't aware that you could have a blind spot...

Uh yeah, the A-pillar isn't transparent. Sometimes I have to move my head to one side or the other to see something obstructed by the A-pillar. If you have a dark smoke window visor in place (VentVisor brand deflectors are dark and also bend light pretty badly), the pillar can then sometimes obstruct a whole car from view.

Uhh, the A-Pillar is so thin to begin with that the "blind spot" is negligable TO ME. The visor gets small towards the sloping portion of the door frame that it's almost non-existent. Also, the only way you would be able to really notice the visor is if you stared up at the under part of it from inside the car, so unless you're LOOKING for the blind spot it doesn't really block anything. Sorry that you hate these visors so much. I think they're fine and don't obstruct anything at all. Your criticism, though

I'm not hating on them, I'm just relaying my experiences from having low quality visors like those from VentVisor (about $40 for a whole 4-door set if that tells you anything).

You can see in this pic that with the visors, my A-pillar essentially became very wide:

Wow, that's pretty shitty. That's why I purchased the OEM versions... they're very thin, maybe almost to the point where some ppl would call the visors useless. I'll take some in car shots, it's not nearly that wide.

Weatherflectors by weathertech are awesome I highly recommend them to anyone wanting visors. It was like 54.00 shipped for the driver and passenger windows. They fit like OEM (perfect) and pop in really nicely. I got mine from http://www.weathertech.com. They are really good quality.
