Disassemble as necessary.
If removing the mounting bezel, pull the bezel from the garnish molding with your fingers.
If replacing the inner bezel, remove the bezel from the sunshade shaft and press the new bezel onto the shaft.

If anyone searches for this later and doesn't get an answer, I just wanted to post up it is possible to remove the mentioned piece. Each of the arms of the triangle have a lip which is catching onto another lip on the plastic of the arm. I used 3 screwdrivers to push away the plastic arms and then wedged a small bar to pry up the piece from the metal arm. The plastic is piece is very tight fitting on the arm and the screwdrivers add more wedging force that you'd have a hard time pushing by hand. The bar "popped it off" and sent 1 of my screwdrivers flying across the room. I added a bit of oil and used pliers to grip on it and rotate on it while pulling after it was past the lip.
To put on the replacement piece, a bit of rotation while pushing down will get it to line up in place. It's very tight and the edges of that piece can really dig into your hand. Use a glove or grip it with pliers.

I don't see a part number on the broken piece I took off my replacement. It is marked RH on it meaning they are side specific. You will probably have to track down a broken visor for a replacement piece or source another good visor. A lot of targa car owners should have shoddy visors and owners possibly replaced them already by this point meaning you can probably snag an old faded/broken one and swipe the clip part off that for a good price.

Auto glass shops have to pop off mirror when they change out wind shields, so stop by one and get some of the adhesive they use.

Sun Visor Inner Bezel
Know it's an old thread but in case anyone new is attempting it.
1) Take off visor Like in diagram.
2) With visor on table, carefully take a screwdriver, small pry, etc etc. and from the top pry out minimally one of the tabs and wedge a toothpick in between tab & bar.
3) do the same with the other 2 tabs.
4)Spray a little WD on it. Grab it with gloves and pull straight up. Will pop right off

Help! The driver side visor cam off pretty easily, but I can't unclip the electrical connector. I'm afraid I'll break the little gray clip. Any ideas? I agree with thr other posters - for such a small job it's a real PIA!

There is a little square hole on the connector. Take a very small flat screwdriver like you get in a precision screwdriver kit and insert in the hole pressing down and forward the gray clip. That is how I released mine. Hope this helps.
