Sun Visor repair/replace?

Post by uuyankee »

My wife has a 93SSE and loves her double sun visor, especially late in the afternoon. The part of the left plastic mounting bracket on the driver's side, that holds the secondary visor (the one that doesn't pivot) has broken. I am looking for a clever way to re-secure that visor. It doesn't have to be pretty and she is ok with the visor always being down, since she is short and can look under it easily.

I am also wondering if anyone has a used visor to sell? So far my searches have turned up only 00-05 visors which look rather different from the 93.

HI, maybe try some contact cement on the plastic parts?

Tried that. Lasted 2 days. I'm thinking I might be able to drill into the mounting socket and mount some sort of metal bar. Gotta search my miscellaneous parts and fasteners collection.

I still have the dual visors for my 93 with hardware intact.
They are tan (saddle) color. Cloth covering is not in good shape though.
LMK if interested.
