Abstract
Abstract A glare shield assembly for use in combination with an auto sun visor, wherein a light filtering shield has means for attaching it to the sun visor to allow the shield to be moved up and down, sideways and pivotable, about a vertical as well as about an horizontal axis, with respect to the sun visor. In the preferred embodiment, the attaching means is comprised of pressure sensitive readily releasable engaging means having mating interengaging elements mounted on the sun visor and glare shield. To allow the visor and shield to pivot with respect to each other, the glare shield has its pressure sensitive readily releasable engaging means wrapped 180° about a vertical edge and also about a horizontal edge thereof.
