sun visor

Post by dave a »

i have just gone to fit my visor to my newly painted car only to find it didn't fit. my son said the ute and panel vans have a bubble shaped roof. we then came to the conclusion that this is a ute or van one. i bought it of a guy who had a ute not thinking there was any differences . not once on ebay have i ever seen them sold as sedan or ute visors( external of course) are there differences between ute and sedans or is this off a fc or fe :?: :?: :?: :?:

Ute ones are the same as sedan and wagon AFAIK , the van ones are definately different - and harder to get - so you shouldnt have any trouble getting rid of it if thats what it is.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

I was looking for one when I had my Van, but modified a sedan one to fit (at a slightly downward angle) I think you'll find that the stays are different and not the visor itself. The van stays have a kick up to follow the roof line.
Awaiting to be corrected.

Sat my visor on the other day, the brackets have a slight bow in the guts.. it'll bolt down but doesnt sit well, the buldge is only 10-15mm.. Could these brackets be off a van or are they just bad fitting?

If they are van, do you have any sedan brackets lying around Blacky?
