Two Questions about a visor. What should I use to paint the underside of the visor, I've seen things that recommend a flat green, not sure what to use. Also wondering if there is a source for a replacement clips that attach to the windshield molding?
Thanks,
Mike

the flat green was painted on the bottom side to reduce glare. not sure if there is a spec for the paint color, but if there is an area on your visor (under the panel in the center) that has not faded, you could probably color match it from that.

as far as the clips. they were missing when i first got my visor too so i just made a simple set out of some metal strap material with the intention of tracking down the real thing later. never did come across a source for them but i managed to get a set off of a donor visor. that may be your best option for finding some too.

We used a flat green on ours. Id does reduce the glare. NAPA used a paint analyzer to get it close to the original green. We still had the original green on the visor when we bought it.

The paint on the underside of My visor is
a pea green, but I am sure any dark color that is
flat will be fine too...Bill B
