I had no idea our visors were moveable!

Post by Whelan »

I have owned the car for 2 years and never knew. My fiance's brother was in the car, sun glaring in the side window, he opens the visor, turns it, then pulls and the whole thing slides down the bar to give extra coverage where he needs it. I was so amazed I almost crashed from staring at it. Wow!

I believe that is only on vehicles without side airbags.

Who needs side airbags, LOL. J/K.I rarely use them anyways, the visor pulls that is.
