    Scored a pr of 2016 black sunvisors. They required a tiny bit of modding and longer bolts to work but nothing major....bolt center = 1 5/8" on truck and 16 visors have 1 3/4" centers so the dremel elongated the holes 1/16th toward the centers and bolted right up. Also had to clip off 2 tiny pieces of plastic and file down level with rest of what sinches down to the roof inside the mounts. They are same size as the 2nd gen gray ones, have lit mirrors(if you want to run the wiring) & instead of having extensions, the whole thing slides to extend when using on side windows. They are same width so have same coverage and fit the indentions in the headliner perfectly. Best part....MORE BLACK & LESS GRAY INSIDE THE CAB! Next up, scoring oem black RC carpet.............

    CorrosionX can be found at a marine/boat store. Lowes is a supplier of Fluid film but I have never seen it in the stores around me. I purchase it at a John Deer tractor dealer. That Amsoil MPhd looks promising so I'm gonna be on the lookout for that.

    Personally I wouldn't be using CorrosionX to "spray some stuff down" under the truck. IMO Fluid film or the Amsoil MPhd would be a better product for that. Whatever you use put some between the sliders and frame before you install them, just my .02.

    I took the rings off and painted them. I am the second owner but it was stock from the guy I purchased it. All changes have been done by me.

    I'm not sure the Amsoil product is new. The cans at my local store are pretty dusty. I do like it better than Fluid Film thus far. It smells better as well.

    I went on a beach run after application. No sand stuck at all to the treated parts.

    Pro tip: throw a ziptie in the shackle pin threaded through the ring so it won't be gone for good if it rattles out from a rough trail.
    Ask me how I know...

    Or get vinyl flooring. It's black and better than carpet.
