Broken sunvisor
I pulled my sunvisor down this morning and the base snapped in half. Has this happened to anyone else? No real point to this thread just seeing if this is common. I live in southern california so it isn't a heat age problem

Next time, I suggest you be more gentle - Maybe try JP Weld it back together? Get another one out of a junk yard? Buy a new one at a dealership? humfrz |

I'm looking around at part outs. The dealer wants $100 for one. I'll try my gluing/plastic welding skills before doing that. |

I just bought a pair online for $48 each. Hopefully they show up... Local dealer wanted $80 each.

This has happened to me. Grabbed a used one of eBay for a good price.
I don't think glue would hold due to the stress put on it while "snapping" into position. But I guess it wouldn't hurt to try. |

I just replaced mine a few weeks ago. Mine actually broke.
$80, and a week later got a brand new one. That simple.
