Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor

Upgrade your Nissan Patrol GU with a Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor designed to give your 4WD a tougher exterior appearance while adding additional shade across the upper section of the windscreen. An external sunvisor is a popular upgrade for GU Patrol touring builds, off-road vehicles, work vehicles, restorations and custom 4WDs.

The Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor sits externally above the windscreen and provides a distinctive classic 4WD appearance. It can also help reduce direct sunlight entering through the upper portion of the windscreen, making it a practical addition for vehicles regularly used for touring, camping, four-wheel driving and long-distance travel.

Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor for a Classic 4WD Look

The Nissan Patrol GU has become one of Australia’s most popular platforms for touring, off-road and custom 4WD builds. Adding an external Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor can transform the appearance of the vehicle while maintaining the rugged styling that suits the Patrol platform.

Unlike an interior sunshade that is only used when the vehicle is parked, an external sunvisor remains fitted to the vehicle and becomes part of the exterior design. This makes it particularly suited to owners who want a permanent styling upgrade for their GU Patrol.

External Windscreen Sunvisor for Nissan Patrol GU

An external windscreen sunvisor extends across the upper section of the windscreen and is positioned outside the vehicle. The design gives the Nissan Patrol GU a more distinctive appearance while providing additional shade at the top of the windscreen.

For drivers who spend long periods on the road, the additional shade can be useful when travelling in bright conditions. The Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor is especially suited to touring vehicles, outback builds, camping rigs and 4WDs that regularly travel in sunny environments.

Why Fit a Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor?

There are several reasons Patrol owners choose to install an external sunvisor. The most obvious benefit is the rugged appearance it adds to the vehicle, but it can also provide practical benefits by helping shade the upper portion of the windscreen.

Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor for Touring and Off-Road Builds

The Nissan Patrol GU is commonly used for remote touring, camping, towing and off-road driving. A well-equipped Patrol often includes accessories such as a bull bar, roof rack, snorkel, recovery equipment and upgraded suspension.

A Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor adds another exterior feature that works well with this type of build. Its traditional 4WD appearance suits both original-style Patrols and heavily modified touring vehicles.

If you are building a GU Patrol for touring, consider combining the sunvisor with other suitable Patrol accessories. You can browse the main range on Visor Investments.

External Sunvisor vs Interior Sunshade

An external sunvisor and an interior sunshade serve different purposes. An interior sunshade is normally placed behind the windscreen when the vehicle is parked. It can be removed and stored when the vehicle is being driven.

An external Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor, on the other hand, is permanently fitted to the exterior of the vehicle. It becomes part of the vehicle’s appearance and can provide additional shade across the upper windscreen while driving.

For Patrol owners looking for a permanent exterior accessory rather than a temporary sunshade, an external windscreen sunvisor can be a better choice.

Fitment and Installation

Before purchasing a Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor, confirm that the product is suitable for your specific GU Patrol configuration. Differences in model year, roof configuration, existing accessories and previous modifications can affect installation requirements.

Installation should be carried out carefully to ensure the sunvisor is correctly positioned, securely mounted and does not interfere with the windscreen, doors, roof accessories or driver’s field of view.

If your Patrol already has accessories fitted around the roof or windscreen area, check clearance before installation. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure about drilling, mounting or modifying the vehicle.

Build Your Nissan Patrol GU

A Nissan Patrol GU Sunvisor works particularly well as part of a complete 4WD build. Pair your sunvisor with suitable exterior accessories such as a snorkel, roof rack, bull bar, lighting and touring equipment to create a practical and distinctive Patrol.

For example, if you are also upgrading the intake system on your GU Patrol, you can link this product to your relevant GU snorkel or air intake product:
