How do I take visor apart?

[monook]

I have these convertible sun visors and I want to change the
base plate to better condition ones, then order new black ones.
But I can not get the spring loaded tab off.
Are they pressed on?
Pictures below.
Thanks
Darryl

That looks to be somewhat braded on,you could cut it off flush with the top of the washer
Then maybe tap the rod and use a screw along with loctite to retain it

Thanks cudascott
I think that is what I am going to do.

I have never seen a visor hanger without the rod before for any vehicle.
I saw something new today. Good luck with it.

We got this car about 12 years ago and it had no visors, just
them plates. I want to put the better ones on.
Found the red visors here on fabo and going to put new black ones on
as well as the nicer plates.

I understand. Took 12 years for me to find 1 piece of rear window trim too.
Anyway... You might pay a premium for new vert specific visors in any color.
You could buy standard visors and cut them to the vert shape too.
The sewing is the difficult part. Probably no more difficult than transfering that hanger rod from one support to the other.

$119 pr at year one, is there others out there?
I am going to cut those tabs off in about half hour
Thanks RedFish

Let's know how it goes?
Thanks

OK I cut off the top, just enough so that the washer pops off and
the spring.
It looks like the factory press them, like doing brake lines
with a double flaring kit.
I used a wood screw and forced it in the hole, but I had to
shorten the screw.
It worked!
Thanks cudascott and RedFish.

Glad you figured it out. If you want new visors get em from Year One. I bought mine years ago (67 fish) and they still look good.

The metal rod pulls out of the visor itself.

To install a new rod, simply push the new rod into the old visor. There is no need to remove the rod from the base unless there is something wrong with either piece.
