Does anyone know what is the material inside the sun visor.
There is the vinyl skin, metal frame and ????? Was it a foam or sand? Does anyone know who can restore them, mine look find but sound like they are full of sand!  |

I'm in the same boat. Haven't found a perfect solution, but found this interesting: https://www.impactbumpers.com/forum/index.p...estoration-diy/ 914Rubber offers a visor core rebuild service but the vinyl is sewn on so don't match the originals perfectly.
I'm really interested in the spray foam approach. The only thing I could find with Google was someone mentioning they tried it with mixed results. I think if I tried it, I'd look at minimal expanding window foam which I believe sets up a little more flexible than the common stuff. |
