That is treasure that surely someone can't resist. Sooo much better than a one piece.🙂

Didnt you throw the last few remnants of a previous tenant at the tip not long ago? Is that the replacement boarder Blacky :ebiggrin: Do you reckon those sunvisor brackets are any good?

I thought I was being clever with the sills joke, but the reference to the steak knives is better. Well played sir - Tim from DemTel would be proud.

Hey guys is this even the right visor for a wagon? I know the brackets are different but what about the visor. I think mine didn’t have one from factory?

That looks like one of the late reproduction ones to me. No roof brackets.

It will be a matter of how well they suit your visor melly. The repro ones from retro spares are designed to fit without roof brackets.

If you need the coolaride style stainless side covers a feller in WA is reproducing them, but they don’t have any script. He is on fb and eBay.

I lent Richard a set of visor brackets as templates to make the copies, he gave me a set as a thank you, they are yours if you want them Melly

thanks Clay, that makes sense and after having a closer look it would appear the visor has been modified by someone previously with those side mount angles.... to fit without brackets as you say.

Cheers Blacky I'm hoping to make the spanner day so I'll bring a few bits n pieces along for the guys who know what theyre looking at to assess for me.

Hey Melly
Those side brackets are a bit weird, I have a visor here that has the normal sides but no roof or side brackets yours if you want it mate.
