Anyone familiar with this monorail system from Rosen Visors?

https://www.rosenvisor.com/store/p168/C ... ystem.html

Any input is appreciated!

Thanks,
John

Thanks for the response Anthony! Any recommendations on where I should purchase them from or should I go right to Rosen?? Also, do you recall if the installation was difficult/time consuming?

Call Rosen directly and they will tell you what you need. I had the rail system in my 421 and really liked it.

I've used them in a few Citations and they work well. You can put them pretty much anywhere you like, although they don't extend downward beyond their physical length (can't rotate an arm and extend them like the fixed mounted ones.)

I have the monorail system in my Cheyenne and it works great. I would call Rosen direct and see if they can help you out.

Here is the link for the monorail system available for the Cheyenne.

Looks similar to the one available for the 421, so I’d imagine you’ll get good results!

Best regards,
Rob Ribitsch

They had them in the CRJ when I flew them years ago. The visor was great, but the mounting system was a PITA. The attachment hardware wore out and then they wouldn't hold in place other than just hanging.
The owner (I believe) was on one of our flights and asked how we liked it after the flight. I pulled him up front, showed him, and said they suck compared to the other Rosen visors that I had used... He just had a puzzled look on his face... The mounting hardware was easily replaceable back then...
