1981 Corvette: Repairing Driver Side Sun Visor

1981 Corvette: Repairing Driver Side Sun Visor

Submitted by: bill81vette

With a small screw driver pop off the plug covering the top hole where the visor keeps falling out of.

• Remove the old clip(its probably broken) and the spring.
• Place the new spring and clip (I put it in with the collar down) into hole and push up on the visor.
• With a small socket push down on the clip pops into place,(I used a small 3/8’s socket about on a handle to push this down with).
• Replace plug cover

Took about 5 minutes to change.

ONE WORD OF CAUTION...IF you don’t get the clip into place the first try. IT WILL LAUNCH itself. I found the pieces a few weeks later and tried again. So far, it has worked!!!!!!
