sun visor

Passenger side doesn't want to stay put.
Anything that can be tightened or is replacement the only option?

Take your top off and tighten the bolt that goes to the arm of the sun visor.

On my 86 there is no bolt on the arm to tighten the spring mechinism, it's a compression fit washer with barbs into a groove on the shaft. I don't know why as the shop manual shows a bolt there...

I should have been clearer. The movement between the mirror and the side window is fine. The visor tends to rotate downwards. I was originally going to say my visor won't stay up but didn't want to get any Viagra jokes.

I have the opposite problem. Mine's a little tight flipping it down and up. Maybe taping a layer of duct tape around the visor shaft will tighten it against the visor recess hole.
