2nd gen LS visors will work on a 1st gen LS.

We have a moderator here with those on and it looks like it came with it.

I got them from luxurymods.com and it cost $240. I agree it is a little pricey but thats the only place that has them.

I'll take some pictures after I install them.

According to Toyota dealership in Okayama Japan they only made theese for a short time for the UCF-10. They caused too much noise, so Toyota stopped making them.

From what i know the visors sell for Apprx $150 at Toyota in Japan . I found a guy who basically is charging $35 to buy and then ship them for a total of 220 .
I can see if he would make it any cheaper if i can get enough people who want !!! them not just kinda interested. I am going to be ordering mine soon for this guy.

What function do wind visors actually serve? E.g., is it so that you can roll the window down just a little bit without getting wind noise, or do they actually reduce noise with the windows all the way down?
