Zumo 665 visor?
I have a Zumo 665 GPS on a Iron Aces mount, and was wondering if anyone has used some kind of a visor on it ? The way it is angled back I get a lot of sun on the screen which makes it very difficult to see.
Thanks, Thistle

No answer yet? I ordered the Nushield which is a sunscreen that you put over your gps screen. That didn't help. In fact, seem to make it impossible to see lol. I'm either looking at a visor or moving it again.

Man that sucks, I ordered the nushield too, just haven't got it yet. Well at least I only wasted $15. You couldn't see the screen any better?

No, I couldn't see the screen at all. It wasn't even a sunny day. I tried it without the shads on too. I came home took it off, and back to the drawing board.

Maybe I need to see if I can make the angle on this mount a little more upright. It seems to be too flat. Even flatter than the radio. I can see the radio screen fine, not the garmin so much.

I was thinking the same thing, stand it up more vertical . I got a glarestopper a couple of days ago and like a member did I put a wire in the seam of the hood so it is more stable. It works well for all except when the sun is low and right behind you.

Ron, did you use the other spacers that came with the mount on top?
