Deflect relentless outback glare and cut cabin heat with this heavy-duty 79 Series sun visor. Built to handle rugged Australian touring and demanding trade duties, this exterior windscreen visor suits the complete 70 to 79 Series LandCruiser line-up manufactured from 1985 onwards—including single cab utes, dual cabs, wagons, and Troop Carriers. Finished in a resilient, UV-resistant powder-coated black to resist chipping and fading, the 79 Series sun visor integrates neatly around factory and Safari snorkel brackets. With driver-side snorkel sandwich mounting and secure passenger-side anchoring, this 79 Series sun visor delivers long-lasting forward vision and practical cab protection.
Traversing long outback highways, remote bush tracks, or sun-drenched mine access roads in a Toyota LandCruiser exposes the limits of standard interior sun visors. That low-angle morning and late-afternoon sun bouncing off a broad bonnet, bull bar, or red dirt road creates persistent eye fatigue. Fitting a dedicated exterior 79 Series sun visor provides a permanent overhead shield, cutting harsh overhead light and excessive heat soak before solar energy penetrates your upright windscreen glass.
Engineered to match the rugged profile of the Toyota 70 Series platform, this 79 Series sun visor pairs dependable functional protection with that classic, purposeful touring stance Australian four-wheel drivers look for. Whether you are clocking long kilometres on a remote cattle station, working a busy trade site, or heading across the Tanami, an exterior 79 Series sun visor keeps your forward line of sight shaded, clear, and comfortable.
Full-Width Windscreen Shading: The 79 Series sun visor creates an active forward shadow zone that substantially reduces driver squinting and eliminates bonnet reflection.
Heavy-Duty Powder-Coated Black Finish: Coated in a tough, baked-on powder coat that resists stone chipping, road grime, and UV bleaching under blistering Australian sun.
Comprehensive 70 Platform Fitment: Tailored to suit 70 to 79 Series cab contours from 1985 onwards across single cabs, dual cabs, wagons, and Troopies.
Factory & Safari Snorkel Friendly: The 79 Series sun visor is designed to mount cleanly without obstructing airflow or conflicting with factory Toyota or aftermarket Safari snorkels.
Rigid Structural Design: Engineered to eliminate vibration, rattling, and highway wind buffeting at open road cruising speeds.
Equipping your LandCruiser with a tough exterior shade delivers immediate everyday advantages:
Reduced Driver Fatigue: Driving directly towards low sun turns glare into an outright safety hazard. A properly mounted 79 Series sun visor keeps forward vision relaxed on long interstate hauls.
Lower In-Cab Temperatures: Shading the broad vertical glass area helps lower overall interior temperatures, reducing air conditioning load during midsummer runs.
Interior Trim Protection: Prolonged solar radiation dries out dashboard pads and interior plastics. A solid 79 Series sun visor provides an external barrier that preserves cab plastics and resale appeal.
Built for Corrugated Outback Tracks: Unlike lightweight universal accessories that shake loose, this vehicle-specific 79 Series sun visor uses positive cab anchoring to stay rigid over thousands of kilometres of washboard tracks.
This exterior windscreen visor suits the following Toyota LandCruiser models manufactured from 1985 onwards:
79 Series Dual Cab Utes
79 Series Single Cab Utes
70 / 75 / 78 Series Troop Carriers (Troopy)
76 Series 4-Door Wagons
Compatible with both standard Toyota factory snorkels and aftermarket Safari snorkel systems
Note: Please confirm that your cab A-pillar and roof gutters align with standard 70 Series specifications prior to ordering your 79 Series sun visor.
Harsh outback conditions demand materials that will not fatigue, distort, or fade under severe UV exposure. Every 79 Series sun visor is fabricated for structural strength and finished in an industrial-grade, satin-to-gloss powder-coated black layer. This heavy-duty coating protects the underlying structure against rust, moisture, and gravel rash, ensuring your 79 Series sun visor remains tidy through years of remote travel and worksite duties.
Mounting your exterior windscreen visor requires basic hand tools and straightforward workshop steps:
Thoroughly clean and degrease the windscreen pillar, gutters, and roof edges.
Align the driver’s side bracket of the 79 Series sun visor behind the existing snorkel pillar mount.
Position the passenger-side bracket firmly into the roof gutter channel.
Fasten the passenger side into place using the supplied heavy-duty self-tapping screws.
Check all mounting points for firm tension and clearance around the snorkel head.
Care Advice: Clean the surface using mild automotive car wash soap and a soft microfibre sponge. Avoid harsh industrial chemical thinners or abrasive scouring pads to maintain the clean powder-coated finish of your 79 Series sun visor.

FAQs
Will this 79 Series sun visor fit if my ute has a Safari snorkel installed? Yes. The driver’s side mounting bracket is explicitly designed to sandwich cleanly behind both factory Toyota and aftermarket Safari snorkel pillar brackets.
Does this 79 Series sun visor fit older 75 Series Troop Carriers? Yes. Because the 70 Series platform shares windscreen and roof gutter contours from 1985 onwards, this visor suits 75, 76, 78, and 79 Series variants including Troop Carriers and wagons.
Is drilling required on both sides of the vehicle cab? No. The driver side mounts directly behind the existing snorkel pillar bracket. The passenger side secures into the gutter channel using the supplied self-tapping screws.
Will this exterior visor cause whistling or wind noise on the highway? No. The aerodynamic contour of this 79 Series sun visor directs airflow smoothly over the cab roofline, preventing buffeting and wind whistle at highway cruising speeds.
