Default Visor replacement

Anyone know where I can get replacement visors, with the garage buttons, and no stupid stickers on them.

Lame stickers still exist on the replacement Homelink visor, but yes I swapped out the factory 1LT visor to a Homelink visor just like the 2LT+ C7s have. Works like a champ for my 3 car garage with Genie openers. Bad news is the fancier visor is $200. Good news is you will have the old one to test how you might remove the stickers.

Add: Almost forgot... I think I got my visor on Ebay.

On my 14 I removed the stickers with a hairdryer. If any glue remains on the visor, use Goo Gone. It took maybe ten minutes to do both sides.

I researched this very question. Unfortunately, there is no driver-side visor with Homelink buttons and without stickers. European-market visors come without the stickers, but they aren't available with Homelink buttons.

GM part number 23148817, made in China and it comes with that nice informational sticker. Think it is a govt. requirement.

The part number was obtained from ebay. The visor came from one of the discount GM parts warehouses you can check out via Google. (I ordered it for D.D. using his CC when he was at our FL home.) Ebay was more expensive than several of the parts warehouses. Check out pricing WITH shipping as their shipping varies all over the place. As I recall, they were almost $300. on Ebay, and around $250 shipped at a couple other sources. You might also attempt to negotiate a price from your local GM dealer.
