David:

I installed Rosen sun-visors in my L-IVP although they had to be custom 
contoured to fit properly.  The only time I use them is on long flights 
into the sun altho my wife uses them a lot more than I do.  (same when 
we drive)

One thing to consider is head room.  When my gear folded on takeoff, the 
plane pulled 6+ G's during ground impact.  The inertia reel on my 
shoulder harness kept my head from hitting the windshield but it didnt 
prevent my head from hitting the little red adjustment screw that 
protrudes from the bottom of the visor.  Cost me 6 stitches.  (no more 
little red screw!!!)

If you always fly/drive with sunglasses, you may not need them but since 
this is one of the lowest $$$ options you can buy for a Lancair, why not???
