Topless Blazers/Jimmy's: What do you do with your visors? (Poll)
 
Just wondering what Jimmy and Blazer owners do with their visors while the top is off. I highly recomend not taking them off. The little nuts in the windsheild may fall off and then your screwed- well I guess unscrewed. I keep mine flipped up, but I am starting to think they look goofy.

Don't worry they look fine. Trust me that's hardly what most non-blazer owners will look at anyways. But as far as ANY convertible goes, i'm pretty sure you're "supposed" to have them up the way you do in your pic.

If it bugs you soo bag, just a bikini top.... i want to but have been putting it off a FEW summers..

There's bugs up there, Mr. 8" lift? Yowzah. How are those tires? Noisy? What kind are they?

I'm suprised, I thought a few guys would have removed the visors all together.

LOL - What are you talking about - I step right into my rig - of course being
6'-5" might have something to do with it - LOL

My tires are pretty noisy - but my rig is almost strictly topless - so can't really hear them over the wind noise - they are made by BF Goodrich.

I know what you mean about hopping in and out without a problem... I'm 6' 6" myself. :lol:

My BF Goodrigch Mud Terrains are noisey as well. Look awesome, but noisey. Strangely, my Blazer is by far quieter with the top OFF than with it on. The exhaust note used to reverberate inside the passenger compartment.

I would disagree. If that thing is used for true wheeling, and the cage is not tied into the frame properly, flex could possibly rip the windshield frame off. It looks like a mall cruiser (nothing wrong with that) so I doubt that will ever be an issue

Wasn't constructed for offroad use (why go to all the trouble to make it look good if you are going off road). Runs the road solid as a rock now-no shake rattle or roll.;)
