Creative sun blocking?

A comfortable seating position has the morning sun coming thru the driver's window completely unblocked by my visor. Extremely annoying!

Has anyone figured out a way to extend the blocking capabilities of the driver's sun visor for a W210 ('96 E320)? Extenders? Telescoping?

Thanks!

I wonder if your visor telescopes like mine does?Unhook it from the keeper and swing it towards the window,then pull it towards the back seat,does it extend?

My 2000 does not telescope, and I have most all options. This feature must be on 2001 or later.

That would be a funny resignation. I was tired of driving with the sun on the side of my face.

On topic, can you order the telescoping visor and retro it to your car?

What years?

Anyone know what year the E320 "crossed over" to the telescoping sun visor?
