My 2019 + 4 is still being assembled by the dealer in Pennsylvania. I received a call today informing me that it DID NOT have sun visors, and did I want to add them. I thought I'd ask "experienced" owners to offer their opinions on it. What say you?

If you're driving west to WA I'd get them. The setting sun in the midwest can be brutal on the eyes even with shades on .

I do not have visors since many years but it is the next urgent item to purchase. Especially during the later afternoon sunshine.

I have got a set and I hink they do a great job. Some other Morganeers think they don‘t need them.

I don’t have them, I wasn’t keen on the look, they’re awkward when not in use and I thought, a little too deep, if you’re short and sit low they’d be fine,
One day, I might get round to making my own coloured Perspex ones, but I’ll make them only maybe 2 or 3 inches deep.
I bought a pair of expensive polarised sun glasses for the first time last summer, they’re incredibly good, why I hadn’t tried them before I’ve no idea, they’ve negated the need for any visors.

Mine are all but useless. I have some smoked perspex ones so they look nice but apart from that, rubbish !

I find them useful but in the up position sitting above the screen. However when it rains they catch the rain & drip it on your legs.

I fall into the "vertically challenged" category and find them really useful in low sun situations. The also deflect wind and rain to a degree when angled up. I wouldn't be without them.

Here you can see how little the view is reduced when you do not use them. In the worst case if you don‘t like them at all the sun visors can be easily removed. ![[Linked Image]](https://up.picr.de/38210064qd.jpeg)

I find mine invaluable as sun visors but also as wind deflectors when topless. Get them!!
