Sun Visors

I recently purchased 2 Slightly Used Sun Visors for our 2003 MC. The one on the Passenger is broken. It probably is a fairly easy uninstall of the broken one & install of the replacement. However, before i attempt i would like to know if anyone has done this & if there is a " HOW TO" on doing this anywhere. Thanks.

Doug

It's easy. Just pry the 2 little caps off with a small flathead screwdriver. Then use a phillips screwdriver to remove the 2 screws underneath. Once this is done, carefully pull the visor down as there is a wire you'll need to unclip. Once you unclip the wire, you're home free. Just clip the wire from the new visor on, shove the wire up into the hole and place the visor up to the screw holes. Screw in the screws, then place the caps back on. But check out MINI2 like the above post states if you don't understand.
