Add on sun visor.

Do any of you have a good add on visor for the driver side window? I can pull the curtain closed up to my mirror, but it seems like a lot of time the sun is coming in at an angle just above the sight line of the mirror. I don't like blocking that much window with the curtain. It would be nice to have something on that side I could pull down to block a portion of the window from the top. I am thinking maybe something that suction cup mounts to the side window???
  • The ebay seller also offers the shade in a wider version .
    My experience is wider is better .
  • I bought this shade at Lowes and mounted it in my drivers window .
    Pull it down as far as needed you can see thru it but it really blocks the sun .
    Lowes will cut it to your desired width .

    Be aware that there may be laws with respect to objects "Obstructing your view" by blocking windshields and side windows on a vehicle.. I am only saying "Be Aware" nothing more.. Laws. of course. vary from place to place. As does enforcement.
  • My MH came factory equipped with pulldown shades on the driver and passenger side windows. I added a cord that is very convenient to reach with my left hand while driving and easy to pull down the shade to block the sun without blocking the rearview mirror. The windshield has electric drop down shades and I have seen them on the side windows of some units.
  • We have good shades, but I always keep a baseball cap at the seat.
  • ^^^ This. We have one of these plus a solid pull down shade. I use the solid one more actually but I like having them both.
  • You can find these at almost any hardware store, and most auto parts stores.

    Pull Down Sun Shade

    I have one in my motorhome and love it, but it's permanently mounted.
  • Google, "movable sun visor," and you will get lots of choices and sources.
