Sunvisor Repair
Posted: Sat Jan 23, 2021 10:59 pm
Has anyone managed to repair the original black/white vinyl sun visors?
It seems the wire frame in my has come detached internal (lots of metallic rattling ) and the foam has completely disintegrated in them. So I want to open them up, fix the frame, replace the foam and close them back up. Which sounds easy but as they seam "welded" I'll have to cut them open and then find away to seal them back up. My plan is to cut them at the hinge end and slide everything in/out so hopefully only a minimal amount of cutting needed.
Would be interested to hear people's experience and if they had good (or bad) method for sealing them back up. E.g, a glue or method to reweld them that worked.
Thanks,
Mark
