Visor issue

Anyone have any tip/tricks to make the visors stay up. The previous owner had a new headliner put in and they re-covered the visors. The problem is I push them up any small bump cause them to slowly fall down. So I'm constantly tapping them back up. Any ideas?

Sun visor bracket ?

Swivels have probablly gone bad. We have them new if you need them. Remove the set screw & slide the visor out. If the pin spins it is bad.
There is a possibility your set screw could be stripped out as well.

Two years ago the local GM dealer ordered the (mine were white) plastic sleeves that inserted into the visor for me - I think they were a couple bucks or so - it took a week to get them. I put them in tightened everything up - so far so good.


Replacement sun visor bushings GM cars, all models. Contains two plastic bushings sufficient for one pair of sun visors.
PM if you have a ?
