Default Aftermarket Sun Visor Replacements???

Hey Guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knows a good place to get replacement sun visors. I have done a few searchs online, and I can't find any that don't have LCD screens in them lol. I just want something simple... Black, maybe a vanity mirror (No light).

Thanks

I am very interested too.

Many moons ago I found a japanese site and it had different bB visors.

The whole site was in Japanese but they loooked real nice.

Built in cd holders, etc.

I was refered to the site by a scionlifer in SIngapore but I can't remember his name.

He usually has the pics of hot asain girls washing his car!

I gotta think of his name.

please, if you do, post any link related to this...the stock visors have been a major pet peeve of mine for some time, and i even had alex (grizzly_choppers) running around the lot with a tape measure for two days, trying to find another visor that would bolt up. he didn't find anything.

(thanks again, alex)

They loose the shape real easy and stay that way.

My cd holder is smushing the visors to no return.

I moved my clip-on St. Christopher medal on the drivers visor and the old impression is still there.

Looks crappy.

I am still trying to remember the nice guy in Singapore.

KapitanE is his name.

Over a year ago he sent me a few cool sites relating to things he had just purchased.


It was great to look at but I had no idea what the prices were, etc.


My Blitz instructions were in Japanese and I had a few new Japanese friends help me read it and quite a few people here helped me with it too.

ANyway, if you hear from him please send me the sites again.

thanks

Once you go to that page go to the "Interiors" section and click on the fourth link down labeled "QQ 4012H". There you will see a whole bunch of visors. Unfortunately I have no idea how to read all of the text.

Scratch all that... go here...

If you don't know Japanese... here is a rough... rough... translation...

Will the person who calls interior [tokoton] probably be trying doing to here, how? Because the seat cover (QQ 4000) the same material as the SPL leather (the software leather/the combination skin make) is, “the seat cover it is even distantly” and also some lever is possible. However seat cover similar and for incoming order production because time is required a little, acknowledgment you ask beforehand.

Note at time of order! Because it becomes the incoming order production item, after the proper form ordering, being usual, it becomes shipment at approximately 3~4 week, but depending upon production circumstance when it is delayed because it is, acknowledgment you ask beforehand. * It cannot apply payment on delivery concerning the payment methods. No soldier/finishing acknowledgment you ask. (Concerning the order of the incoming order production item viewing) the color of the fastener becomes similar color of cloth by all means concerning mail order.

My sister's Camry has telescoping extenders built into the sun visors. On the one hand, they are kinda cheesy, but on the other hand, something like that would be very handy when flipping the visors over to the side windows.

That's it ? Nowhere in the US ? The $63.56 is no problem but ordering from another country is...

I'd be happy with just a new drivers side one. I had a cd holder on for 2 yrs. and can't get the wrinkles out yet. Anyone know how much the replacement one might cost? Thanks!

It would seem there is not yet a good source for Aftermarket Sun visors?

Perhaps does anyone have some links to sites that have Tutorials/Instructions on fabricating your own custom visors?

My sister's Camry has telescoping extenders - if anyone sees something like that for the xB (or knows if visors from a Camry would fit an xB), I'd love love love to know.

I'm not looking for Factory Visors, I'm looking for better ones I want to get something for my xB that's sturdier, and has a slide out extension for the side window.

Default this is badly needed

The visors are big problem for me too. It may seem like a small thing, but they look very cheap. I hate flipping it down and seeing that stupid little vanity mirror. It also seems like it won't last over time.
