FAQs

How do I know if the size is right for my car?

The strip is 137 x 17cm and can be trimmed. Measure the top area of your windscreen where you want the strip to go and compare it to the dimensions. You can trim it down to fit most windscreens.

Is the adhesive permanent?

The adhesive is strong for secure application. While it can be removed, it may leave residue or require careful prying, and the adhesive may not be reusable.

Can I install this myself?

Yes, installation is designed to be simple. It involves cleaning the glass, trimming the strip if necessary, and applying it with the adhesive backing.

What if I trim it wrong?

It is recommended to measure and trim carefully. If an error is made, you may be able to remove the strip and reapply, though the adhesive may be compromised. It is best to test placement before removing the backing.

Will this fit on a truck or SUV?

Given its dimensions and trimmable nature, it should fit most truck and SUV windscreens. However, always measure your specific vehicle's windscreen first.

How do I clean the Sparco logo?

Clean the entire visor strip, including the logo, with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

Visor strip not adhering properly

Ensure the windscreen is perfectly clean and dry before application. Re-clean the area and reapply the strip, pressing firmly.

Difficulty trimming the strip

Use a sharp pair of scissors or a precision craft knife. For best results, lay the strip flat on a cutting mat and trim slowly and carefully.

Bubbles under the visor strip

If minor bubbles appear, try to gently push them towards the edges with a soft cloth. For larger bubbles, you may need to remove the strip and reapply it after ensuring the surface is clean.

Visor strip obstructs too much of the view

The strip can be trimmed further. Carefully remove it (if possible without damaging the adhesive), trim more to your preference, and reapply.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Clean the interior of your windscreen thoroughly with a glass cleaner and a lint-free cloth.
  2. Position the sun visor strip temporarily to determine the optimal placement and identify areas needing trimming.
  3. Carefully use scissors or a sharp craft knife to trim the strip to your desired size and shape.
  4. Peel off the adhesive backing.
  5. Align the strip with the top edge of the windscreen and press firmly from the center outwards to ensure a secure bond, smoothing out any air bubbles.

Compatibility:

This visor strip is designed to fit most standard car, race, rally, and motorsport vehicle windscreens due to its customizable nature. It is best suited for vehicles where sun glare is a frequent issue. Ensure the dimensions, after trimming, do not violate local road regulations regarding windscreen obstruction.

Care:

To clean the visor strip, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the material and the adhesive. Do not use scrapers or sharp objects to clean the surface.
