I am going to fit sun visors to 2015 plus 4. What are the views on fixed on, versus clip on. And who do you recommend as a supplier.

Hi John, I don't want to put you off as there are multiple reasons for having visors, I'm also wary of raining on anyones parade so here goes.
I have sun visors and found that the best way to manage low sun is a peaked cap. Depending on which fixings you choose, a cap saves the inevitable frustration at them drooping down all the time

I've got a graduated vinyl strip, sun visors & a hat  John, your 2015 car should have threaded sockets on the upper frame, spaced to take factory visors, they are available from dealers as an accessory

My windscreen doesn’t have visor fixings so I bought some clip-ons. The problem I found was that with the hood up there was a small gap around the fixings and rain seeped through quite badly, after a while I stopped using them and replaced the foam sealing strip on the hood header rail.

If the sun is shining the roof is down and the sun is above the windscreen, the visors are useless plus the factory ones droop. Get a peaked ball cap.

I see it differently. I've been using factory sunvisors for a year and a half, and one frequent and important use is when the sun is above the windshield with the roof open. My sunvisors remain stable folded upwards.
