Default Sun visors: mine are just not quite long enough...

I drive 25 miles to work and back every day. I go south in the morning and north in the evening. So I get the sun shining from the driver's side both ways. What really sucks is that the angle of the interstate is perfect to put the sun right between the visor and the b-pillar. SUCKS!!

My last car (don't laugh), a Camry had built-in visor extensions that would fill that area. Do any of you have a solution that your using?

Thanks.

Default I have the exact same issue

I sit far enough back that the sun gets right between the visor and the B pillar.

I do, but that sucks. I guess I got spoiled by my high-end Camry LE.

Default Couple of Rubber Bands and a Piece of Cardboard.

Put this on the visor and slide it in/out as needed.

The sounds very sophisticated, should go well with the overall look of my car.
