Abstract:
1. A method for substantially reducing glare from sunlight when operating a vehicle having at least one pair of visors adjacent to a main viewing window, the visors spaced sufficiently apart from each other and from the vehicle's rear view mirror thereby defining a sunlight transmission area, the method comprising the steps of: introducing a light blocking apparatus, the apparatus being of sufficient width, height and shape to completely cover the sunlight transmission area while allowing operation of the vehicle; and allowing the apparatus to be removably securable to the rear view mirror in the sunlight transmission area from above the rear view mirror by a coupling system, the coupling system comprising at least a first hook coupler and at least a second pile coupler, the first hook coupler placed on the rear view mirror in a substantially vertical orientation relative to any horizontal surface, the first pile coupler placed on the apparatus in a substantially horizontal orientation relative to the surface.
