One hopefully helpful suggestion is to use a 10 mm socket and a "Quick-Grip" bar clamp if you have one to press the retaining star washer and spring back into position. I have one that has large pads and is about 12 inches wide when fully opened. It fits well over the exposed bent medal rod of the visor and the other pad goes over the socket. A couple squeezes and its back in place and ready for the nut.

They are for my '88 in particular but I believe apply to all C4s.
