Sun Visors (1 Viewer)

What's everybody doing for visors. I've got set, that I ran through the blast cabinet, but not sure if I want to get recovered with vinyl or build my own.

Let's see your ideas!

I like the idea of using airplane sun visors with Polarized Lexan tinted shades

Some guys did a group buy last year. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/rosen-aircraft-sunvisor-to-replace-sagging-visor.606798/

Just read through that, nice for sure. I need to ask Lou how they held up, as far as, scratches. I do like the brackets.

Any body with some DIY visors.

Finally was able to get out to the parts wagon, to see how it's visors were and discovered the ones I have are different. They must be from a newer version. The 71 model has a three hole mount, instead of a two hole mount. They're in good shape, but still the rod is rusted, not something I'd like to use.

The Rosen visors, that JMack listed are nice, but would need to redo the mounting points. Something to think about.

What are you restoring types doing? Any ideas?

I got mine recovered by the same guy who put in my headliner.

I wonder if his would match my cruiser corps headliner?

Pablo,

How did they turn out? Did you reuse all the hardware, etc.? Mine seems to be rusted pretty bad, so needs to be replated.

I like how they turned out. I can post up pics if interested. Yes, we re-used all hardware.

Pablo, how about adding the pictures to your build thread, also.

Ron,

Did you get your visors sorted out?
I'm getting ready to order some Rosen visors and I can ask about a package deal for two sets or I will send you my recovered set if you want them.

I've decided to use the stock ones and get them recovered. At least for now and see how I like them driving. I got the pieces chromed and cad. plated, so should be good for awhile.

Thanks for asking.

I thought I took pictures of my visors, but it looks like I never posted them?

I just got off the phone with Dan over at Rosen and he honored the $245.00 group buy price from last year.

So far I'm impressed with Rosen.

I posted a couple of pics in my build thread...
