I was really annoyed at how the ct has this beautiful ginormous windshield but the sun visors obscure it when not used, and I never even use them. Tried to remove them myself, following the manual. But after breaking a fair plastic clip, I paid to get them removed by a pro shop, and also the rear view mirror which was also useless.

I just use sunglasses ?
Yeah, but they don't do as well as the visors in direct sunlight. Sometimes, you just want to block that fiery ball of gas.

That's a hot look, and likely the two side mirrors pass any states regulations for rear facing mirrors. Keep in mind the sun is powerful. I learned that when I first bought my X. That windshield went back behind my head. Its a lot of heat on your face and head. I'm planning on a 97% UV blocking film, (getting placed today!!! ). Good Luck and I rarely take the time to place the visor when facing a setting sun. Drive on!

That is one way to stop the drive selection housing from coming off the window when someone tries to move the visors.

Ironically I took it into Tesla a few weeks ago and they fixed this issue already lol

The rear view mirror I've not used, but I like the visor.
