unfortunately the ebay add only has 1 left.

I may need to get some custom made from a vendor I've used before.

Found an alternative to purchasing a new visor to use as my garage door opener (all it took was a piece of velcro). It also comes with the added benefit of being concealed given I part the truck outside.

I guess I am the only person who enjoys the amber lights on vehicles....

I remember vividly my dad's 70 Mach backing out of the garage when it was almost dusk and him only having his parking lights on. Still gives me chills thinking about it.

Nope, not just you, I like the look of the ambers, I would swap out clears for ambers myself.

The cheapest place is ebay or a site like this.

Genie Garage Door Openers | Chamberlain Opener | Garage Door Parts | Access Control Systems | Gate Openers

I got tired of having reach for my phone in the cupholder to see who was calling, so I picked up this suction mount.

Works like a charm. And it doesn't really block where I need to see at all.
