I've tried the other methods of fixing our visors suggested and they don't work. The internals of my visor is also slighty different that the ones shown in the "how to" pictures. Once I find a method which works for my visors, I will post pictures. I think this hillman insert might work but I can't find it to begin to try. lol
I found it at County stores, a local hardware store. I could not find it online, and I looked extensively.

I also had this mod accomplish one and only thing - destroy my sunvisor. It did NOT fix the drooping, and instead it made it very dirty (alot of the work has to be done on the visor or with the visor, you have dirty hands, and you inadvertently get it dirty) and it has a huge cut in the back of it from opening it up to get at the "innards" to repair it. The internals of my visor were also slightly different, but using the same principles, I attempted to repair it. My recommendation is to just buy new visors.

Just a word of caution.
