Does anyone sell "no-label" sun visors ?
I can't seem to locate a sun visor replacement without the air bag warning labels. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
|
Try Suncoast...they sell European style visors (illuminated or not) without the airbag stickers.
|
I removed the decals off mine, but it wasn't easy. I used some of that lemon "goo-gone" stuff, but still had to scrape gently for quite awhile. I didn't know you could buy them like that.
|
Removal of the sunvisor decal was a much discussed topic on Porsche Pete's Boxster Board. If I remember correctly, the recommended method of removal was with denatured alcohol.
|
There is someone selling vinyl stickers on ebay that go right over the warning graphics. That should solve your need.

First mod I did after I brought my new car home back in late March of 2006. All you need is:
1) Patience 2) Rubber gloves 3) Denatured alcohol 4) 303 Aerospace Protectant |

1) Gently remove that part that has the sticker on, needs a slight bend (the mirror cover thing)
2) Remove the sticker with hot water preferably (if you don't want the part's pins to break in 2 months time) 3) Wet-sand them with #600 waterproof sand paper 4) Rinse, dry, then spray them with 2 coats of mat/flat black spray paint. They come out even better than brand new. and no bubbly stickers needed! |

alcohol can sometimes dry out the plastic, I used WD40
|
Actually I''ll give you $40 for your visors, as I have a car without covers
|
I used the ebay stickers. A matter of a few seconds to put them on and they are practically invisible. On 3 years now and no sign of peeling.

Every home garage should have a can of denatured alcohol around for projects. And it makes the best, and cheapest, window cleaner in the World: 1 part denatured alcohol to 2 parts distilled water. |

I had mine recovered with black leather on a previous Boxster. He took the lid off and glued a deviated red vinyl that matched the red and black interior. it looked great IMO at least. Before anyone asks, I couldn't find a picture of the long gone sunvisors. I looked for 15 minutes before posting this. I was already doing door panels and seats, so it didn't add that much to the bill.

How difficult are the to just remove. The whole visor. I do not use them and would like to just take them off completely.
