I know that user Frankie 123 is re-making the outer pivot mounts for sunvisors. But that isn't the part that I need.

Does anyone have a source for the inner clips that hold the ends of the sunvisors? These go on either side of where the interior rear view mirror mounts. See pictures below. I am contemplating replacing my headliner, and know that these clips are too embrittled by the sun to survive removal and replacement.

In the event that I won't be able to find reproduction parts, has anyone cobbled up a substitute? Something like a short length rigid plastic tubing with a 1/4" or 6 mm id that could be screwed to the roof where the factory clips used to go?

For extra credit, does anyone know if the sunvisors were actually able to snap in and out of these clips when our cars were new and the plastic wasn't brittle from 54 years in the sun and ozone?
