| O i also decided to take the visor off, karmen connections are pricks and i hope they read this, i bought a visor from them in august 2009 and in november the nuts and bolts had rusted badly, i removed it as worried about my gutters, which are fine With  without  I was gonna leave it off but after seeing it without i decided its staying lol | |
