Baby Elan Fhc Sunvisors

PostPost by: klev » Fri May 27, 2005 12:39 am

I need both LH/RH. My S3 FHC has the holes, but the visors/brackets are gone. Since I understand these are difficult to source, does anyone know of another marque with similar sunvisors; one whose brackets might be adapted to fit the Elan mounting holes?

Of course, the real deal would be better. Any leads, to either the genuine ones or replacements that would fit, much appreciated.

Thanks and Happy Motoring,
Ken

I've pursued a pair of sunvisors in the past (albeit for a dhc - but I've seen dhc's with them) and have always been told that the Elan used the visors from the Mk 1 Cortina.

Good luck.

Cortina Anglia etc are all similar but not the same!!

I think someone was looking at remaking them as both Lodestar and Confetti headling material is available again

Confirmed: Cortina/Anglia sunvisors NOT same as Elan. Will not even fit as mounting bracket holes have different spacing.

Anyone know source for correct hardware/brackets?

I was of the impression that they were sourced from BMC and not Ford

Try Mini or Austin 1100/1300 ones.
