Default Vert Sun Visor Organizer
Convertible owners, are you using a sun visor organizer and if so, which one? Seems like a difficult choice to make since most of the time the visors would be up with the surface that the organizer would normally be on, flapping in the wind! (ok, not really flapping but you get me.) Is there a special one made to work basically upside down?

Sorry for all the newbie questions.... Thanks.

These visors are pretty fragile. I wouldn't be hanging anything on mine. Already replaced them once.

Good advice - replacing a damaged visor is not cheap.

Btw I never put my visers flipped up in the wind I don’t like how that looks on any vert. When top is down I always flip them all the way in, looks better to me. Jmho

I learned to do that on this forum and always pass the tip on. Also, when showing have the visors down to keep sun off them.

But I put my visors even with the top edge of the window frame keeping them out of the wind but also making them not obstructing any vision.

I didn't like the factory visors so I bought solid black leather visors with yellow stitching with a built in garage door opener. No stickers and no mirrors and no hanging ANYTHING on them!

Better off finding one of those organizers that you can velcro to the vertical carpet behind the seat.
