That looks great.
Did you sew it back up yourself?

I took both of mine to an upholstery shop and had both insides rebuilt and both visors recovered. The look and feel much better than stock.

I had a bit of trouble programming the Homelink too.
I used the information from the web site (as suggested above) as well as the manual for my rolling-code garage door opener. I had to press the "learning" button on the opener unit itself, then press the Homelink button about three times in rapid succession.

The antique opener programmed much easier by simple holding the remote near the Homelink and pressing both buttons at the same time.

HTH.
