My driver's side sun visor has a habit of working itself loose from the outside (left) mount.

I've remounted it several times, making sure the pin in set all the way into the mounts on both sides (and the square post properly oriented). But, if I tighten the screw holding the pin in tight enough to prevent the visor from drooping, moving the visor up and down sloooowly works the pin out of its mooring.

Anyone else had this problem and has found a fix?

Thanks,
Tom
