Default sunvisor extensions

Howdy all. It never fails. I'm driving eastbound or westbound here in Texas and sunshine sneaks directly into my eyeballs in the gap between the left edge of the visor and the A pillar. Or the sun will sneak through just past where the right side of the visor ends.

My previous car had these doohickies that slid out of the visor to help with this situation, but the Vette doesn't have this. I've been to Wally World and Auto Zone trying to find some kind of clip-on extension thing to block out the sun but no luck. I've tried those dark tinted plastic sheet things that allegedly stick to the windshield, but they never stick for me and are a pain to keep reapplying.

Suggestions on fixes and where to find them?

Thanks

Mike
