Mine was fixed under warrantee. If it's drooping, you won't need to replace it. Look around in here and you're bound to come up with a fix somewhere. (I know somebody had a thread on that - but I can't remember who.)

thx vm for replying. my visor is drooping, and not broken, but it's a pain for passengers who are taller than me as it continuously impedes their vision. i did see some threads on how to fix it (i.e., soddering iron, etc.) which sounded like a bit of auto surgery. i'm looking for a quicker option (and a cheaper option than going to the dealer), i.e., any one know of a good junk yard, etc? thx.

by drooping, do you mean won't stay in the "up" position? heard about problem visors on SVX's, but mine are fine. if they won't stay up, how about putting some heat-shrink tubing around the "post" of the visor clip, so it has a bigger diameter that the receptacle can "get a bite on." damn, that was had to put into words!
