Ok, this is a really small annoyance, but I a have put my baby away for the winter and might do some small things that have bugged me.

The clips that hold the visors in it's normal position suck. They dont snap in; they just kinda rest there. Under hard acceleration or a bump, they come out of the clip and vibrate against it.

I know.... small stuff. However, has anyone come up with a better solution?

You may just need to get a new set of clips. Mine rattled too, but once I bought a new set, it was nice and tight.

Ghetto solution. But, at the same time, invisible ghetto solution ... one spin of electrical tape pulled tight against the male end of the visor works great. I had the same problem.
