Default Sunvisor completely broke off <HELP>!!!

The other day I went to flip up my sunvisor and the whole thing fell apart on me! Looks like the cardboard inside was rotted and i ended up ripping off the plastic part that holds the mirror in off because it was hanging and the lights would not shut off... For now I'd like to take the whole visor off somehow, but I'm not sure what tools I need or how to do it. Anyone know where I can located a pair of visors new or used (whole thing)? Thanks, Chris.

You can buy another one new from Fred Beans Chevrolet or post that you are looking for a visor in the for sale section.

You can buy each side individually. My wife broke the pass side one, and I got a new on from Ken Fichtner Chevy for $65. Took about 15 min to remove and replace.
