Default C6 sunvisor problem

i have a 2005 C6 -coupe and the driver side sunvisor keeps popping out of the holder. i had the dealer change the clip once but it is still the same. they said they have had complaints but the parts are no better than the original part.

thanks allan

Great car but the interior is pretty bad. something so simple and they can't even fix it under warranty. would love to get something to fix it.

I tried a very small piece of electrical tape, but it didn't work. I had some other type of black tape that was made of some type of cloth...it works.

Wife is the only one using it and it stays in place and doesn't pop out!

Try it, even if the tape costs more than electrical 69 cents), it's worth it!

Try putting a layer of heat shrink tube around the end of the visor if it looks like there's enough slack for it.
