I dont know what year/shape you are looking for or if all models are the same? I spoke with one of the breakers and they wanted £50 for a pair. I only need the drivers side and thought, wrongly, that it is possible to get these new. If you can, I couldnt find where!
Perhaps we should split a pair?

I've tried search to no avail, but given what they look like (very much mass produced) I'd be surprised if they were TVR-specific? I thought I read 'Peugeot 205' somewhere but can't seem to find it on any of the alternative parts lists anymore - does that ring any bells?
I'll have a look tomorrow I have a 205 at work let you know, and yes they do look very mass produced TV8 said:

To be honest, if their from a 205 pug you might be able to get one for peanuts or nothing, will be easier to get hold of as well, will bare it in mind though if I cant get a 205 visor Perhaps we should split a pair?

The alternative parts list on chimaerapages.com lists them as being TVR-specific. Bobsy said:
Sounds like we need a job lot. The visor on the passenger side of my car is now drooping and wont stay up. Seems like it is broken inside.
I repaired mine by removing one side, put some tape around the rod and refitted. (silicone on the screw through the windscreen frame).Took 5 minutes and has been fine since.

think you will find the Pug 205/309 thing is the rear view mirror. 
D*mn...
The plastic part around the rod was broken on one side on the passenger side visor of my car, too, last weekend I managed to remodel a metal 'loop' clamp that is used for bolting cables to car bodies (with a rubber part insidie) to fit around it and persuaded it to hold the rod tightly enough with liberal use of a vice and mole grips... Visor was still kind of droopy afterwards (but not nearly as bad as it was) so I taped the rod on the other end. So far, it has held up.
The plastic past that fits around the rod is a royal b*gger to get to, though. It fits around a piece of wire on the underside and is held with a small metal clamp that cuts into the material. I got mine out OK because the outside skin of the visor had a small split in it where the rod enters the visor, anyway.
