My passenger side sunvisor is a bag of disgusting yellow foam particles that are leaking into the car from around the mirror (at least I assume it was a mirror once)
Does anyone know what car they came from?
Anyone repaired theirs?
Anyone found a close substitute that fits onto the existing mounting pins? (The sunvisors can be pulled of the pins/bars that come out of the swivel that screws to the roof)

My sunvisors are from a series 1 xj6.

Hard to find, i tried all the jaguar specialists and in the end got lucky with a pair from a specialist breakers just 5 mins away from work.

The foam disintegrates and crumbles. These are sealed vinyl units. My intention is to have mine professionally recovered- not original but better looking (plus the black does not go with the beige TVR interiors)

My car was a 1978 TVR3000M with black inside. (Now is a 5000M) The visors are entirely supported on the pivoting pins and have no clip. I am guessing this means that they are not Jag XJ6?

mine has no clip, it is held to the car with 3 screws and has a chrome ball pivot joined to a long bit of metal which slidesinside the visor body
