Default What size screw?

I need to replace the plastic clip that holds the driver side sun visor in place (side next to windshield rearview mirror) but can't seem to find the right size socket to remove the screw. Its for a 2003 coupe. Anyone know the exact size? Thanx.

Should be a 7MM or 9/32.

Thanks Shawn. The 7mm worked well, but the remaining (broken) piece of visor clip seems stuck in place. When I pull on it, the vinyl of the headliner wants to come with it. Before I pull on or try to tease it away, I want to ask if there is anything I need to know about removing it so I don't damage the vinyl. In other words, is it attached by glue, or is it just sticking from normal wear?

It is not glued on, at least mine weren't when I replaced them. Just wiggle it a bit and pull gently and it should come loose.
