Will these visors fit my specific Freightliner Century model year?
Our Freightliner Century 112/120 visors are designed to fit Century Class trucks manufactured from 1996 to 2011. The visors are compatible with both the Century 112 and 120 models. However, some minor variations exist between early models (1996-2003) and later models (2004-2011) in mounting hole locations. We recommend verifying your truck's VIN and model year before ordering, or contact our support team with your specific truck details for compatibility confirmation.
What materials are these visors made from, and how durable are they?
Most Century visors in our inventory are constructed from either high-grade fiberglass or ABS plastic. Fiberglass visors offer superior durability and resistance to cracking in extreme temperatures, while ABS plastic options provide a lightweight alternative with good impact resistance. Both materials come with UV-resistant gel coat or paint finishes. Based on customer feedback, fiberglass visors typically last 8-10 years with proper maintenance, while quality ABS versions last 5-7 years under normal highway conditions.
How difficult is the installation process, and what tools do I need?
Installation typically takes 2-3 hours for someone with basic mechanical skills. You'll need a drill with metal bits, socket wrench set, measuring tape, and a helper to hold the visor in position. Most visors come with mounting brackets and hardware, but some customers report needing additional self-tapping screws or rivets. The main challenge is ensuring proper alignment before drilling - we strongly recommend using the existing factory mounting points when possible. Detailed installation instructions are included with each visor.
What styles and finishes are available for Century 112/120 visors?
We offer several popular styles including standard drop visors (12-15 inch drops), curved aerodynamic designs, and straight traditional styles. Finish options include paintable primer (most common), chrome-look stainless steel, polished aluminum, and pre-painted colors like black, white, and red. The standard drop visor with paintable primer finish is the most popular choice, allowing you to match your truck's existing color scheme. Chrome and stainless options require more maintenance but provide a classic long-haul appearance.
Do these visors actually improve fuel efficiency, and are they DOT compliant?
Properly designed aerodynamic visors can improve fuel efficiency by 2-5% at highway speeds by reducing wind resistance and directing airflow over the cab. The actual savings depend on your driving conditions and speed. All visors we carry meet DOT requirements for forward visibility and mounting security. They must not obstruct the driver's view or extend beyond legal width limits. Most quality visors include documentation certifying their compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
