Default Replacement Visors

Amazon is showing a number of replacements visors in the $50 to $60 range for the pair. Considerably lower $70 range for each one in the past.

Anyone purchased any of these?

I got the $70 dollar ones. They are better than stock. They have LED lights and the switch for the lights are a nub on the back of the mirror lid that pinches the switch to come on. No chance of the light not going off.

So far so good.

Look where the light switch is and if it is a white pin you run a risk of it sticking on if the lid did not shut well.

The only issue with mine is the seat belt label came off and I was going to remove them anyways.

Thanks much.... seat belt label coming off sounds like a bonus. Man I hate those but been scared to try to peal them off. Any trick to remove them?

It was falling off. They are just stuck on and are made to pull off easy.
