Sun visor replacement options

Post by C1ph3r »

hey guys. i have the stupid droopy/falling/sagging driver sun visor problem in my 99 V70.

i would like to replace it. anyone know what other models will fit? i cant seem to find a 2000 or older one on ebay that looks decent. but there are lots of 2001 and up.

done a lot of searching and seen some interesting fixes but no reference on what other year models will work.


thoughts?

Why not try somewhere like Erie Vo-Vo near NYC. I don't believe Northern cars have the same issue. I have never seen one like that in 15 years of PnP junkyard trips.

I looked on their site and I was only able to find tan. Salvage yards are few and far between for me. One day when I can muster the time it’ll take to go out and look I will certainly do it. Yeah I bet the heat here plays a big part in it
