These are clips that attach to the stock visor that give you an extended blade for those who sit all the way back.

In an effort to make myself and my wife as comfortable as possible on long trips, I designed and printed these clips that cling onto the sun visor and allow a 100mm (3.9") x 300mm (12") piece of 1.5mm (1/16") material (hard plastic, balsa wood, carbon fiber, cardboard, etc.) to be extended to block the sun from the side windows. I have included a DXF file for cutting!

You will want to print these from a higher temp filament like ABS, Nylon, etc. As even PETG softened in the  50+C 130+F of a cars interior in the summer.

Designed for a 718 Cayman, these probably work with other Porsche models.
I have two STL versions available (comes in a printable pair; drivers / passenger side):
Porsche Visor Clip STL - this is the final version that will still allow the vanity mirrors to be opened if you slide the panel all the way over.
Porsche Visor Clip Remixable STL - this is a simpler 20mm version that is just the extrusion. It would block the mirror, but would allow you to remix the design easier.

visor_blade DXF: I had to notch them in order to fit the middle visor clips when closed. I could have also shortened them to about 11", but this worked out. Added a little gaffers tape for grip.

Enjoy!
