1. Tilt the sunshade down toward the windshield.
2. Insert a flat head screwdriver blade into the slot in the sunshade inner bezel.
3. Using the screwdriver against the elbow of the sunshade arm for leverage pull down on the
sunshade arm while rotating the sunshade outboard until the sunshade stops. (the first tab
disengages).
4. Push up on the sunshade and continue rotating the sunshade outboard until the sunshade with the
inner bezel disengages from the mounting bezel.
5. Disconnect the electrical connector.
6. Remove the sunshade.

I've read lots of info on taking off the sunvisors. I'd love to take mine off. The only purpose they surve me is blocking the view. I've never seen pictures of what the car looks like without the visors. Am curious as to what folks are plugging the holes with. Any pics out there?
