The idea of paying $100 each for another unit that would eventually fail in the same fashion didn't work for me. I carefully took one apart so I could use the material as a patern, salvaged all the hardware, lights and mirror. I remade the internal structure with a similar grade carboard, covered that with black vinyl and contact cement, installed the mirrors and then stitched around the edges to give it a better look and more strengrh. They look OE and function as well or better than new. In fact the visors are the same for some of the early model C5's and I have been asked a couple times where I bought them. Total cost was about $25...Canadian...LOL |
