Slimline Door Visors

Has anyone tried these for their 2006 Civic Sedan? I just got mine today and plan on installing them tomorrow. I hate the fact that rain and windshield wiper fluid pours into the car whenever the window is even cracked just a little. I like the look of these on the College Hills Honda website. I am hoping they perform as advertised. Anyone who has any experience with these or a similar product any comments would be very much welcome.

Thanks in advance
CJ

The ones that I just got are Genuine Honda. They are from that College Hills Honda website that sells all Genuine Honda parts and accessories. They are and Australian Honda product, so that is why they are not sold on Honda sites here in the U.S. They look pretty sturdy and attach with a very strong adhesive tape. I guess I will give them a try and see how they hold up.

I will keep everyone updated on how they work and how they hold up. I am sure everyone on here would love a good solution for the problem with water coming in the window once opened. It would be nice if this was that solution.

I installed them a couple of hours ago. I really like the look of them a lot. They are very tight to the car, not too bulky at all. As long as the adhesive holds up as well as they claim it does, these are going to be really nice and totally fix the rain/wiper fluid problem with the windows. I will keep everyone updated on how it holds up.

If I get a chance I will post pics later tonight or tomorrow.

Please let me know how these visors have worked out for you. I have been looking for them since Feb when I got my Civic... felt like a fool when I went back to the dealer and asked how much it would cost to have visors installed and they told me they didn't exist for '06 Civics

Any pics or info, good or bad, would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Liz
