Default Sun visor rattle

Anyone else's sun visor rattles when in the up position? Any quick fixes? Seems like a small thing but it drives me absolutely nuts.

Make sure the visor is snapped into position in its retainer.

Make sure that it is the sun visor and not the roof or other component up by the roof. Many threads on here in regards to roof rattles and the plastic halo piece next to the roof locking handle. Sun visor consists of two screws and a snap on piece, check those also just in case.

Its definitely snapped in and is definitely the sun visor because when I hold it still and when I flip it down it stops. It seems to me its hitting against the lock handle of the targa top very slightly. Was wondering if this was common

I've got the same rattle! Only when passenger visor secured in up position. Seems internal? Will disassemble and fix eventually. Have been riding around with it unlatched and extended 1 inch and no noise. Slim

Good to know it isn't just me. Mine is passenger side only as well. I've tried move it half way down a little but just pops right back up after a while. I'm thinking wrapping the clip part with electronical tape so it won't be so loose
