Peterbilt 567/579 Visors

Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 567/579 Visors

Will this visor fit my Peterbilt 567 or 579 without modification?

Visors in this category are designed to match the factory windshield and cab contours of the Peterbilt 567 and 579 models. However, exact fitment can vary slightly depending on cab configuration and production year, so it is important to confirm the specific model year and cab style before ordering. If you are unsure, our team can help verify fitment prior to purchase.

What materials are these visors made from, and how durable are they?

Most drop visors and sun visors for the 567 and 579 are constructed from fiberglass or ABS material, chosen for its balance of strength and weight. Fiberglass visors tend to offer added rigidity and resistance to road vibration, while ABS options are often lighter and more budget-friendly. Both material types are built to hold up to daily highway use when properly installed and maintained.

Do these visors come pre-painted, or will I need to have them painted separately?

Visors typically ship in a raw, unfinished gel-coat or primer finish so they can be color-matched to your specific truck. Painting is usually done after purchase by the customer or a local body shop to ensure the color matches your cab exactly. Some listings may note if a specific finish or color option is available, so check the product details before ordering.

What is involved in installing a visor on my truck?

Installation generally involves mounting brackets that attach to the existing holes or mounting points above the windshield, followed by securing the visor itself with the provided hardware. Basic hand tools are typically all that is needed, and many customers complete installation in a home garage or shop setting. We recommend reviewing the included instructions or reaching out to our support team if you have questions about the specific mounting hardware for your visor.

Will adding a visor affect my visibility or windshield wiper clearance?

A properly sized and installed visor is designed to shield glare and road debris without obstructing your view through the windshield. That said, drop visors sit lower than standard sun visors, so it is worth checking clearance with your wiper arms and mirrors during installation. If you have concerns about visibility with a particular visor style, our team can help you choose an option that fits your driving needs.
