Scottish Elises

Does anyone know how sun visors fit an 05 Exige?

On the later models they look like they sit in behind the hard top plate that covers the window frame (don't know how else to describe it but hopefully you know which part I mean) however that part of my hardtop sits flush with the window frame therefore I can only assume the sun visors are held on some other way on earlier models - anyone?

Lewis,

Your welcome to have a look at mine. My car is an 07 as got the sun visors. I had a look but cant really see, guess you would need to take the roof off?

Your welcome to have a look if it gives you a better idea? Does your car have sun visors at the moment?

Be aware though - Elaine has them on the 111R and I find them about as useful as tits on a camel. They are the better solid ones too. For the hassle, I'd wear a cap.

Austen - that would be good mate thanks, when you free?! I'm about most of the weekend so can buzz along?

It doesn't have them at the moment but I'm looking to get one on the pax side (the later ones you mentioned Shug) as the girlfriend is quite dinky and needs something for her side.

ps - Shug, if you think they are crap and fit my car i'll pay top dollar for them.

I have them on my 07 Exige but they don't extend below the (standard on my car) visor strip.

Might be an option btw...looks great on a black car.
(although if you're tall it's like looking through the letterbox).

Not mine to sell and Elaine would cut my nuts off for attempting to flog bits of her car. Just pointing out that if it's gonna take you a lot of effort to do, IMO it's not worth it as they don't actually offer owt but the most tiny bit of shade.
