Default Sun visors.

I am finding that the sun visors are always in the way in my convertible. I was thinking of taking them off. Has anyone done this?

I took my sun visors off five years ago after they fell apart. I really don't miss them on my daily driver. I seldom have the top on in my coupe so they really did not help much.

Mine are gone. I'm 6'-2" and they were always in the way. They also obscured part of the windshield. Plugged the holes and love the look.

They probably don't provide much shade when the top is down anyway...
