A Visor Buddy!

So I was on the beltway yesterday and saw a white 3-series with a visor hanging from his rearview mirror! His tag was "JAYSBMW" or something like that. I'm not alone!!!

esp/ in the summer. a hat traps the heat in.
unless u wear one of those trucker hats, not
for me personally. a visor keeps the sun out
of ur eyes, but allows the heat to escape. i
just don't get it.

I don't have anything against visors, just having them hang off the rearview mirror. That blocks your line of sight and would get you a ticket here in CA.

Sunglasses work for me
Michelle if you see him again, you should try to say hi (in a safe manner, of course).

I'm not against visors, I just don't like having anything in my X that's not part of the car or it at least needs to look factory-installed. For example, I'd really like to put a simple aux input in my X but I don't like the idea of having it in the glovebox. I'd really like to have it be readily accessible without having to open anything, but I can't find one little 1/4-inch spot in my car that I'd be happy with either.... Yeah, I know - it's a sickness...

I do keep my sunglasses in the ashtray though since I can close it and not have to look at them...

Mine wouldn't fit in there, so I keep them in their case in my door compartment.
