I saw these many years ago but never bought them for my Hummer.


I asked about a group buy for 5 or more. If shipping to one address they are offering a discount. I asked to confirm if we could do multiple addresses.

My wife complained about how small the visors are so I got her the visors we use at work. I’m an airline pilot and everyone on the Airbus fleet has these. They’ve worked well in the Gren so far. Stupid name but they get the job done.

I'm worried about the 0.01% of UV rays that get through.
And not to mention the 0.01% of bacteria and viruses that sanitisers and household cleaners can't eliminate.
The bad ones gonna getcha!

I have family in Eugene. If it helps I might be able to have someone pick them up and drop ship to buyers.

I am still working through the install but I am really happy with the results so far.

I am going to remove the Grenadier mount so that I can reinstall it to cover the hole in the headliner.

Although I am asking Rosen if they have a bigger plate.


It is not easy.

I would buy a wider sun visor that filled out the windshield better, but I am ALSO looking for a separate visor for the side window.

I am a (non-commercial) pilot and we use nice big visors in the cockpit, but you are usually pointing in one direction for a while before changing course. In a car on the highway you are turning constantly as the road snakes around and sometimes you end up flipping a visor back and forth past your head over and over. So annoying. Why not have two visors?

The Grenadier has plenty of room to mount a visor where the (useless) handle resides above the side windows. This second visor would need to live peaceably with the front visor when folded up, but I don't see much down side to having two visors. I've made some epic road trips through the US Southwest and Alaska, and I know how the sun can full-on assault your eyes for hours on end. It can impact your ability to stay focused and cover ground. Really effective visors are consistent with the mission of this vehicle.
