Posted June 25, 200321 yr comment_41998 My sunvisor is a bit loose and hitting a bump usually brings it down. Is there any way to tighten it a bit? I really don't want to use velcro strips on the roof lining to keep it up.Cheers Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 25, 200321 yr comment_42003 If they're the stock items, there should be a screw in them on the outside corner where they are attached to the roof. Tighten this up and your visor will get stiffer. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/#findComment-42003 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 25, 200321 yr Author comment_42009 That screw only tightens the left to right movement, not the up and down which is what I need. Thanks anyway. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/#findComment-42009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 25, 200321 yr comment_42048 If you look at the visor itself, right where the length of steel rod enters the body of the visor, you should spot a screw that seems to go THROUGH the visor but it doesn't, it's just on one side. this screw is the one Alfa is referring to. It tightens down a "clamp" of steel around the steel rod that goes through the body. If you can't see it when the visors are in the UP position, then lower them and look on the back side.2¢ Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/#findComment-42048 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 26, 200321 yr comment_42105 I would have tried to be more specific but I only have a vague memory of what it all looks like. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/#findComment-42105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 13, 200420 yr comment_76867 You might even sand the axle with long screatches/grooves to help the clamp grab better. I've taken one totally apart for recovering. I had to change the shape to fit the replacement rear-view mirror off the Eclipse I got my seats from.Has anybody recovered their sun visor(s)? Mine are plenty saggy, and I was thinking about using (suede) leather. I'm not sure if ( a very dark brown) suede would be period-correct?You can get leather (suede?) cheap at the Salvation Army store by getting a leather coat/jecket and cutting that up. Much cheaper than regular sources!thx Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/6786-loose-sunvisor/#findComment-76867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
