Has anyone installed an interior visor light bar on their Tahoe?

Curious about how high it can be mounted, how it affects visibility, and more importantly how you’re running the wires for a clean set up. Thanks

I'm trying to visualize what you are talking about, and I'm failing. What is the purpose of this, and how is this positioned (not how it is mounted) on your visor?

Some law enforcement and fire personnel mount emergency light bars on the inside of their windshield, near the roof where the glass meets the headliner (behind the visors).

The light bars are tapered and designed to fit flush against the inside of the windshield, while being mostly concealed on the inside as they are covered by the visors. Often there are two (left and right).

Some areas with volunteer fire fighters also use the lights.

OK. Thank you for clarifying what the OP may be attempting to do.

The wires can be run along the top windshield, tucked underneath the headliner and down the side, tucked under the pillar.

The other user provided a great description of it, below is a photo of what I was describing. I am more curious about how flush they sit with the roof and how much it affects the outward visibility from the drivers position.

Every vehicle is different and some are able to be mounted so they are out of the way, others sit lower and directly in the line of sight.

It's possible, especially if you're tall, that these 'visor lights' will aggravate you some.

I had a shelf in my '95 Tahoe that used the sun visor mounting holes. I had to lean down and forward to see some traffic lights and signs and such.

I removed it.
