Does anyone know if there are 3rd party sunvisors available for the Elise S2?

I think maybe Eliseparts sell something. They're so small though as to hardly be worth bothering with. If the sun's out you'll have your roof off, invest £20 in a nice baseball cap

What S works says - I've got them on mine and quite frankly they are next to useless - even add a few ounces of weight and slow you down

I removed mine as they provide no real use. Spend the money on good wrap around sun glasses and a baseball cap..

My S2 came with a couple of bits of cardboard about an inch wide covered in some scrotty black plastic hinged to the upper part of the windscreen. I suppose they're supposed to be sunvisors of some description. I'd never put em down though in case someone saw em

hmm. that's weird. I find them surprsiginly useful. Maybe I'm just the right height (bum to head) for them, then?

On many occasions I find that the sun is just below the line of the windscreen surround and the little 1" bit of cardboard is the difference between me moving about trying to get sun out of my eyes and...well, not!

Hmmm....? Tony, did your car come with the visors fitted or did you fit them?

I'd like to try some but I don't know where to get them from?

Regards,

Mac

Yeah, mine came fitted. I believe they are part of the '04 111S spec.

Sorry I can't be of any more help - they were on there when I got it and know that they were standard factory jobbies.

I just use a peaked cap, very effective and adjustable to all circumstances
