Sun visor

Only complaint day 2 of use are the sun visors.

Way too small and no "overlap" to protect driver from sun around rear view mirror.

I will have to work on a simple workaround.

You are not alone, and others have found some workarounds.
Sun visors - bloody useless!

Oh, wait. You said "around rear view mirror." Most of the complaints deal with sun coming in the window on the driver's door.

Try these:

Has anyone tried these? They look simple but promising.

no. they block less sun than the standard leaf sun visors. :lol:

I just traced the existing sun visor outline to a piece of cardboard, and cut it 1/2 inch smaller all around. It slips in nicely under the elastic band and slides out to block the sun.

I also wrote "NISSAN" on it with a pen to dress it up a bit, and to remind me to look at better finished cars next time.

Hate the sun visors. My biggest gripe about the leaf besides not being able to buy a larger battery size as an option.

These look really good. The new rav4 ev has pullout extensions exactly like the leaf should have.
