Default 2017 GS driver side sun visor replacement help

Need help to remove the visor to replace with home link unit. Have seen instructions for older years but can someone help with instruction for a 2017? Thanks

I can't imagine the process would be different. Remove that little cover, unscrew it, pull it down, unplug it then replace. I don't know if GM did something weird to the connector though, so you'd have to verify the 2017 p/n before you buy one.

Dumb question but how do we remove the plastic cover?

It's just snapped into place. I have plastic trim tools which I recommend, but you can just use a screwdriver to get under a side and pry down. It pops off.

May I ask why you are placing the home link unit on a new GS?
