Default Passenger side sun visor

When I got his pace car the visors refused to move at all. I dug through all the new parts that came with it and found the brand new left side visor but I don’t have the right side. Is there some way to free them up? And if I cannot loosen it up can I buy one somewhere? Interior is “Oyster”. Tia

Try some lithium grease. I was able to reuse the retaining washer.

How do you have a Pace Car with an Oyster interior? I though they all came with either Silver Leather (152) or Silver Cloth (15C). Can you please post some photos?

I have two cars with Oyster bits, though it seems to not be a popular color anymore. I was able to trade for some pieces, so that may be an option, perhaps a WTB post in the parts for sale forum.
