Abstract
The auxiliary sun visor is a sun-blocking device that attaches onto the post of a rearview mirror and blocks sunlight coming in over the rearview mirror and through gaps between the vehicle's existing sun visors. The auxiliary sun visor is a rectangular panel, which has two L-shaped slots of varying sizes extending inwardly from opposing edges of the panel. The auxiliary sun visor is slid onto the post and shifted laterally so that the post is seated within one of the L-shaped slots, thus securing the auxiliary sun visor onto the post. Once mounted onto the rearview mirror, the auxiliary sun visor is positioned between the vehicle's two permanent sun visors.
