New T-Top Sun Visors

Where can I find OEM style replacement sun visors for a 85 t-top car? Just rebuilt my headliner and the visors look poor with the new headliner material.I am looking for the ones with the vanity mirror on the passenger side in black. Anyone steer me to a good retailer? Badman

Aftermarket visors won't have the passenger mirror, nor the warning label on the backside of the driver side. Other than that, the aftermarket ones look very good.

Unfortunately, this is the best pic I've got of the visor installed:

I just ordered a rear headliner trim piece from F-Body MS and I will see how well they respond to my order and ship it. Hopefully no probs. Thanks for the replys. Badman

Damn, I wish I would've known that before I ordered a set of Hotchkis lowering springs from them.

BADMAN, sorry for the crappy advice.

We'll just wait and see what happens. They're still in business for some reason. No problem with your post. It's good to have lots of options.

No need to apologize. I knew the score when I ordered it.

I don't know...I can't see $70 for those 2 small pieces of interior. Think about it...$35 PER SUNVISOR?

I can't see it either, (not yet anyway) I could have gotten you a set of OEM's for half that price (used but mint of course) My friend look at the JY's and all boards unless you have the dough to spend on OER stuff.

I ordered mine from Hawks when I was putting the interior in my car. I was pretty impressed with the visors. I didn't think $70 was a bad deal considering they were completely new and will last for another 20+ years. That's only $3.50 a year.
