Default Sun visor help

??? How do you remove the sun visor? I have an ‘11 GS Conv.
I am needing to remove the visor and trim piece to run some wires to the mirror area.
Wanting to conceal my dash cam wires and an after market mike for a new Kenwood head unit.

Thanks, Roger

I've done that for each visor (in switching out bulbs). I don't have a ton of experience with taking apart cars . . . but the way you do this and the concoction of plastic parts under there is so Rube Goldberg that I had to laugh. (Not that challenging to do, just challenging to stop laughing.)

Can be challenging and frustrating, engineering could have been better.
