RE: Completely removing your visors....
 
There is a less radical approach that increases your field of vision, 
doesn't completely remove the visor and doesn't cost you anything but a 
few minutes of time...
 
Using a pair of pliers you can gently pull the little plastic pins 
(they're sort of like big plastic bobby pins) out of each end of the 
visor.  This pin is the hinge point for the two halves of the visor.  
After both pins are removed you are left with just the upper half of the 
visor remaining on the car.  The visor is then only about 1/2 the 
thickness as stock and you get greatly improved upward visibility.  In 
fact, the single thickness visor tucks up so nicely against the header 
that I doubt you would gain any significant visibility by removing the 
entire visor.
 
The whole thing still looks stock too!  No holes to cover, etc.
 
BTW, this does not apply to '95 models.  I noticed that the '95 models 
have a larger, solid, single piece visor.  (Maybe the '94s are this way 
as well...I never checked.)
