Question 1

does it block uv rays?

Accepted Answer

Note that the glass in your windshield ALSO blocks most UV rays. That's why photochromic eyeglass lenses (Transitions and other brands) don't work inside your car. UV is not the problem. Contrast between bright and dark is a problem, and glare from multiple sources is a problem.

Question 2

I drive west when the sun is setting, it's blinding.  does this help, has anyone used it for this type of situation?

Accepted Answer

I also drive west when the sun is blinding.  I used to be terrified in certain sections of the road because  I COULD NOT SEE the cars around me  What I like best about this visor is that you can adjust this visor while you're driving so it's behind your car visor    Then, when you start getting into  the section of the freeway that is so glaring, you can jut pull the visor down in stages and push it back up again behind the car visor in stages.  It definitely cuts down on the glare. I have very sensitive eyes and no visor I've ever had  has cut the glare enough to make me comfortable  when  I'm driving  into the sun.  It's sturdy, and doesn't rattle when you're driving or fall off the car visor if you hit a bump.

Question 3

My glare guard is disconnecting at the metal hinge and then it falls apart. The screws do not tighten. What do I do to tighten and reconnect it?

Accepted Answer

It’s simple, and you don’t need superglue. You need two flat screwdrivers (or a putty knife and flat screwdriver) and two hands. Use a flat screwdriver to hold the screw in the back of the visor stationary. Use a 2nd flat screwdriver on the front of the visor, turning the front screw clockwise to tighten. To keep the screws tight, consider some LocTite.

Question 4

Will this fit any car?

Accepted Answer

Will this fit any car?  This unit will fit any car that has a visor.  This fits my Toyota Matrix, my Honda Odyssey, and my Toyota Camry.  Note that it has two clips that hold it to the visor.  They also have Velcro straps that go through these clips and then wrap completely around the visor, so it is extremely secure!  I loved that feature a lot!
