Visor Question..

Ok I just put new visors from a donor truck in mine. The drivers side is good but the passanger side will start to fold down as I drive.. how can I tighten them up to keep this from happening..

Thanks

You can't really. Best bet is another donor visor.

I crimped the metal band in the visor with some pliers.

Also you can pull the visor off and rough up the bar with some sand paper so there is more grip to keep the visor up.

Or pull the end with the rubber cap out. Wrap some fraction tape on the plastic rod in the middle. That should tighten up. Also, get new rubber caps if the old ones are rotted.
