Hi folks, my restored E9 is perfect in nearly every way except the redone sun visors. You can see that they don't fit perfectly, or even close, in their headliner cut out area. Worse, they don't stay up on their own and constantly fall down as there is not enough friction to keep them upright. I recently replaced the inner slots thinking a new female receiver clip would do the trick, but not the case.
Ideally, I'd redo each sun visor to have a smaller outer surface for a flush fit.
But the easier fix, since I'm not after concours perfection, would be to make them stay up against the headliner, but not necessarily in their slots.
That would mean doing something to the outboard sunvisor pivot part to add more friction inside where it meets the upholstery.
Anyone do this yet or have a similar problem?
