It takes all of about 2 minutes each to remove them, pull then off and see if you like it.

Are yours beat up or block your visibility?

Just curious as to the reason . . .I rarely use mine but I suppose it's like taking off the windshield wipers on my C3- if you never use `em, why not clean up the landscape.

No, have never considered taking them off the car. They do come in handy at times.

I find that the Z06's oem tint strip in the front takes care of most of the glare issues by its self. But I do use the visors from time to time to. If you don't need them though then sell them here. Apparently a lot of people have been chewing on their sun visors or something cause there is always a WTB here for them lol. I barely use mine, or the car even, so mine are mint

A must for tall guys. Really opens up visibility.

I can't imagine why you would want to take them off. They do work.

I took off the drivers side visor in both my vettes to give me better visibility. I'm kinda tall and it allows me to see through the top of the windshield. I also made a plastic plug to go back in the space where the visor is installed so it didnt look unfinished.
