These new "plastic core" sun visors with the LED lighting are so much better than even the factory fresh ones. Make sure to double check your inboard attached anchor clips as they may be worn out and need replacement too.

I've been listening to this conversation and I jumped on a set from amazon too. My originals aren't bad but the led lights will be a plus for the wifey. Thanks for the link too.

The real trick on theses is to find the new visor with the metal contact for the light in the hinge. Avoid the ones with the button that the lid has to shut on. Too often the hinge or lid just get messed up and the light will not go off.
