About to replace my visors and I'm interested in the one with HomeLink. However, I have the original windshield and my current garage door opener seems to have issues with it...already have to stick my hand out the window sometimes to get it to work. I don't want to spend a bunch of extra cash for a feature that my special laminated windshield will prevent me from using. Any experience?
TIA |

Was wondering the same thing myself. Homelink would be sweet, but would it work? Do you know if all the components for it are internal to the sunvisor?

Yes, it's a very simple unit and doesn't need to take up any more space than a normal garage door opener. I'm sure it would work just fine. My only concern is with the ZR-1's OEM laminated windshield.

Interesting - I use an opener and don't really have a significant problem with my original windshield interfering. It is, however, a 20+ year old unit - not a HomeLink if that's somehow a different spectrum or something.
Your mileage apparently varies, - Jeff

It works fine. I have had mine in my car for several years with the original windshield. If you have an older garage door opener however you may need a repeater. Been there done that. Works fine with the newer garage door openers as well.
Now if I could get my Gate code fob and home alarm to work thru the windshield that would be great....
