Yeah, I don't see how very much air could catch your visor. Your ride looks good too by the way :)

Just curious as out vision is limited with the windshield as is and traffic lights. With the visor on doesnt your neck hurt from having to twist it to see the lights lol.

LoL... I don't know as I haven't driven with it on yet as this is just the early stages of my mock up... But that's a good point and one I hadn't considered yet.

wow I just reread my post and I was really tired when I typed it lol. So many mistakes. Just curious as our vision is limited with the windshield as is and the trouble seeing traffic lights.


There we go fixed lol.

too close

If you pull up too close to the lights, yeah. But I have a habit of not getting too close to the intersection; that is where the accidents happen. This habit has saved me twice.

That is a very good point Boydie. I also stop way back at Rail Road crossings...p!sses the people off behind me but I don't really care. As if driving 100 feet further after the train passes is really going to put someone behind schedule.

If I am in front of the line of cars I pull up to the line of the intersection and more times then not I have trouble seeing the traffic lights. It just seems silly that we have to stop so much further back just so we can make sure we can see when the light turns green.

This is the biggest problem I have with the HHR. I feel like I need the sun roof so I can see traffic lights.
