Dropping Sun Visor
 
My passenger side visor is starting to droop. Is there an easy fix for this.

Bob

the easy fix is attaching a potato chip bag clip - $1.

a 2d way is surgery to the visor, seems a few parts
inside break and there you have the notorious fix with a
clear tube that should last a couple of years - a weekend and a few $$$..

the 3rd way i know is the visor clutch that currently sells for about $80 each

Only problem with this one is the price...

I did find the photos of the hose fix on the "other" site. I might try that one

Thanks

Bob,

you did say "easy fix".

also another way to fix the problem is to take them off and throw away and you will never have that problem again.

My $2 fix takes 3 seconds. Got the potato bag clip in BLACK with RED handle.

Matches the liner and the red stripping well. Almost OEM.


That other fix, the install a rubber tube, etc .. takes a full weekend, you hope nothing breaks
in the process and you get about two seasons out of it? I either dont have the time or motivation.

If the potato clip is good enough for zinzin, it is good enough for me.
