The only other set of visors are too nice to cut up, but this is what we need when I say stripped.


So, to strip the sunvisor, you just cut away the vinyl and padding and clean up the frame? I sort of hate to cut mine up since they are intact, but they need recovering.

What is a good way to ship these to Mark? Will a pair fit in a large US Postal Service flat rate box which is $10.70. Should additional stiffening or padding be added to the visor frames? Thanks.

Sory didn't answer the part with the shipping. These don't fit into a flat rate box very well, anything you can find to ship in is fine as they are lite.

I haven't sent mine in yet due to the weather mess in the southeast. I hope to box them up this weekend. If we are going to use the existing pins that the visors pivot on should we send them so you can insert them in the new visors ? Or do we insert the pins once we receive the recovered visors ? Thanks

Stripped mine of the vinyl today.....WOW... the inside foam was just dust and powder. The one frame is a little rusty should I clean that up before shipping ? And do you need the pivot pins sent if we are using our old ones ? I hope to ship mine out Tuesday.

For those puzzling over the way to box these, what I did is to take two USPS flat rate boxes and cut the tabs off of one of the open ends. I closed up the other two ends and then put the visors inside one and pushed the other over the end of it. It helps if you use one Priority Mail box and the other Express Mail. The Express Mail are just slightly larger and that facilitates the slip over. The boxes I used are the flat ones about 3"X12"X15" or so. Of course, you have to then take brown paper grocery bags and cover this assembly as the PO will not ship it unless you do...

Just knock the loose rust off to make sure the cores are solid (haven't found any that were not yet) I don't need the pivot pins as they are part of the visor clip mounts. You may want to check to make sure the pins fit in the mounts good enough to hold the visors. I do have the clips available if you need one or all. th eproblem is if you replace one it will look nicer than the others (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I sent mine today via. UPS from Anniston/Oxford Alabama. I am pretty sure I wrote return address on envelope with check inside. If not just use address on check. Thanks Mikey914 and you can get me at rgirello@cableone.net.

Mike,

Am I too late to get in also? I picked up a set of cores yesterday at the Pomona swap meet.

Thx
