How To Make A Car Sun Visor Extension

Here is how to make a car sun visor extension. Extending your sun visor will fill in the gap between the window and the door post on most cars. It's easy to make your own sun visor extension with cardboard or hardboard, and attach it to the sun visor with binder clips or rubber bands.

LOL that was too easy, I didn't even think of that. Some of the simplest things people don't think about good video

Thanks

"Really impresses the ladies".....Made me LOL !

[@stevegyro7202]

Yeah me too :) if I was a lady and a guy asked me to get inside a van without windows on a first date...I'd be running away....fast

[@verygood7155]

Those are very clever and doable solutions to a really annoying problem. You'd think all car manufacturers would get wise and offer extendable visors. Back in 2007, Toyota's cheapest car the Yaris had beautifully made extendable sun visors so you know there really is no excuse excluding them on cars other than to reduce costs a tiny bit.

[@hoohoohoblin]

I agree. Well said.

Car visors are already made to extend! Just pull it out from the left, it slides across the metal bar it's attached to and it will cover those few inches!

[@roseroseroserose6958]

This lady is impressed haha. Thank you. Great idea. Now I have to get creative rather than spend a good £15 on some shades I was looking at.

[@hoohoohoblin]

You’re welcome

[@Bgsqlila]

Hmm maybe a ponytail holder would fit around my visor because you cannot easily move material with binder clips. I knew there was a way to make my own vs buying one. Thanks for ideas.

[@hoohoohoblin]

You’re welcome

[@Teflon916]

Hell yea man. I was thinking about inventing one of these. Then I realized it was already invented. Then I thought about buying one until I saw your video. So thank you very much for giving me ideas on how to save myself $6. Impost cars don't have extensions, even newer cars don't have them.

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

Thank you! Just bought a new car and the visor is the only thing I don't like about it. Going to do this NOW

[@hoohoohoblin]

+sleepingsunrise You're welcome. People have told me that you can buy something like this on Amazon and eBay as well, if you want something that looks a little better.

[@anneshaw9681]

Live in Australia where all cars need them. Notice the Subaru has then built in. Been doing this for years. All car should have them.

[@hoohoohoblin]

They really should be on all cars everywhere.

[@anneshaw9681]

Totally agree

[@mikamo]

Wish my Subaru did.

[@shanedrew6029]

Thanks bud works perfectly

[@hoohoohoblin]

You’re welcome

[@thomasedinger2655]

Love the pull out extension on my Yukon and the second flip down visor under the main visor. Wish all my vehicles had such good sun protection from the Arizona blinding killer sun.

[@hoohoohoblin]

+Thomas Edinger I don't understand why more cars don't have this. It would be really cheap to produce. I wish there were good aftermarket ones you could buy to replace the whole visor.

I'm lucky. They thought of that on my Impala Limited (Old body Style). I have the nice extending ones that slide on the rod. They are also useful at night when the work crews have those lights going.

[@hoohoohoblin]

Most new cars have some kind of solution for this, but the car companies should have figured this out 40 years ago.

[@susanwakeman610]

Thanks! I really miss my old Taurus that had extenders built in. Why don't other car models have this?

[@hoohoohoblin]

Good question. They must never test drive the cars early in the morning or late at night while they are designing them.

[@jasonchristopher7191]

If you pull it..it extends

[@aaronjonesgospel]

I thought all cars had extenders until I bought a Volvo. I was shocked when my visor didn't extend to block the sun. I couldn't believe it. Maybe the angle of the sun is different in Sweden
