I am only 6 feet tall and when I flip down the sun visor it’s too low by maybe 2 inches - even with it flipped against the windshield. I can’t imagine that anyone that is taller can use the visor at all. Does anyone make a shorter replacement? This is a 2026 SAS.

Thx!

You can always try what works for my convertible Mustang - wear a hat with a brim that can also work as a sun visor. In that case it works for sun coming in at all angles, like from the side, where I can't put a visor.

I'm 6'1" and don't have an issue with the visor sticking down too far, but maybe I have my seat lower than you. Does that manually adjustable seat go down further than the electric ones?

I can't help with the visor issue, but I definitely get it. I'm 5'10 and can't really use the visor as it drops down too low for my liking. And I'm also annoyed by the rearview mirror as I find it seems to take up way to much room, in my opinion.

Did you know you can partially rotate the visor as far as you need to block the sun? It will be at an angle but that's fine.
Good grief - I’m not an idiot.
My post plainly states - even when it is tilted as much as you can “hitting the windshield” ….. it is too low. Exactly as others have stated replying to my question.

I’ve had the same annoyance and settled on what I think the other poster was trying to say, flipping it down just enough to help but not all the way down or out toward the windshield. So the visor is pointing in at your head still, but it can do the trick depending on the sun angle.

That doesn’t work in my case - I have a very long torso - short legs and then where I have to adjust my seat. My only option is to tilt it all the way forward and adjust my seat to the floor which is not comfortable. I guess I’m stuck with sunglasses- baseball cap and holding my hand up to block the sun. LOL

Not sure of the dynamics at play here but pointing it toward you should work unless you're completely shrimp-shaped.
If not I can only conclude you're using it wrong. 🌞

A lift and/or level helps a lot.

Wear a welder's helmet. 🙃
