Mine are trashed from being tightened over and over again. I have extracted the visor portion. Are there any good repros which fit or can be modified to fit?

In case they are different between models and years, mine is a 62 hard top there are 3 screws retaining them to the roof. The ones i see on ebay are for mid 60s nova and the screw pattern looks to be too small.

This is for an early nova (chevy II) and appears to look correct. Anyone know if they will?

Ebay 62-63-64 Nova

I posted this to the yahoo group as well. I got the car out of storage yesterday and need to get this fixed and put in the new steering gearbox and such before i can get driving it this summer.

OPGI has these....

https://www.opgi.com/skylark/1961/interior-accessories/sun-visor/CE14336/

Appears to be the same as your link but for a lil more $$$ -- I think you're safe with either product from the looks of it.

Might check w/ Ames Performance too -- they list supports for 62 tempests @ $46.00 -- part # LA358 -- they appear to be the same as the two above as well

A friend has a 61 impala, so I took my sun visors over to his place and trial fitted them. Fit perfectly. I bought these. 58-62 Impala Pivots

My guess is that these are made by the same place. It is just that few know they fit the small BOPs as well.

On a similar note, Where do I get a new headliner. Mine is starting to fall down.

Awesome. Now I need to figure out which color mine is. I think it is silver star.

I never go to their web page as it is awful to sort through the 30 years of cars to find the 4 or 5 parts which actually fit mine. And then to try to figure out which 'group' you are interested in. Thanks for the direct link.
