Sun Visor Rubber?
 
The white rubber stopper that is on the end of the sun visors has rotted and fallen apart. Does anyone know where to get these or a suitable replacement?

LMC sells the entire pin (P/N 40-1386) for $2.95 or just the rubber boot (P/N 40-1391) for $1.95. I'm not a huge fan of LMC but they usually come through for small stuff like that.

Mine did that like decades ago. LOL :)
Even a white truck gets hot in there in the summer time, here. ;)
Anyway I replaced mine with fuel hose twice so far, prob'ly due again. ;)

My parts truck, I pulled the sun visor loose on the passenger side and the
white rubber doohickey -flew- to pieces all over the cab. LOL :) There's a
couple other things made me think there hadn't been a passenger in that
pickup in a very long time.

I purchased replacements on eBay on Steel pins. The plastic factory ones were brittle and snapped off from age. Dennis Carpenter used to have them, as well as LMC. Haven't looked for while though. Perhaps try a Google search? Good luck!

I just got a couple of rubber vacume caps from pepboys. Works great!

I use the rubber from the cheap door stops found at hardware stores.
