Window Visor and Frozen Window TSB - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone here have the Frozen window TSB done on their car and also have window visors?

I am planning on buying window visors, but I have had the frozen window tsb done on my car. Seeing that the window does not go down as far anymore when opening the door(because of the TSB changes), im worried that it will hit the visor when i do open the door.

Any input would be awesome!

Thanks

if spaced properly, the windows will clear the rain guards.

These will be installed with clips so it will be hard to place them spaced out accordingly.

Anyone have a link to the BRZ version of the frozen window TSB?

I only have 1 more winter with my car before warranty up, want to get it addressed.

Now I sit in wait of zero degree temps and driving with the heat off to the dealer so it is still frozen. And parking outside the service area so it won't thaw and have to hear every excuse in the book.

the ones i had were the clip version/3m tape as well. there is a spacing template that you can print out / cut out to help space them perfectly. other members may have a copy of the template, as i do not.

My rain guards are 3M'd on, no clips. Plenty of room

just an update to this... I am going to have to remove the visors this summer because the windows do not roll down fast enough when opening the door....so they are always being hit. a little bit annoying. maybe even just remove them and reinstall them a bit higher if the tabs allow me to...

which visors do you guys have? and do they hit the glass?
I have hic's and they go on with double sided tape and on the plastic trim, they hit the window when I open the door.

Not sure if the oem ones hit. I just don't like how they mount on the paint.
