eaglescout526 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Alrighty everyone, I have some materials left to make some visor harnesses. I am seeing if there is any interest in these as I would not like the materials to just go to waste sitting in my pile of Jeep parts. Shoot me a PM if youre interested as I do not want to post a price on these in the pub and I don't have any intention on becoming a vendor for them either, unless the interest is there.

I have never seen a visor plug on the drivers side, doesn’t mean there isn’t but if you can find the same plug that’s on the passenger side which is a 2 pin metri-pack connector, then I can whip up one.

eaglescout526 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 Lol. It looks like you have the later style visor. I am unsure of what the connector is for those lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy crap how did I miss this?! So I would say give that connector some power and use the metal of the visor as a ground. I can't say I am familiar with that style of connector.

MiNi Beast Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 well thanks man. got it figured out. cleaned up some wiring and found a few hot ones i planned to make use of. and like you said ran one to that wire, jammed the wire in the single pin connector on the visor, touched it to ground and the lid worked as the switch. i now have lights so i can do my makeup at night. now to get them recovered and make them pretty.

It won't make the visor harness difficult for me to make, just won't utilize the ground from the dash harness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will whip something up for ya, the visor is going on the passneger side, right? Is it going in your 91 or Comanche Dawn? If its the 91, I have no idea how much of the interior harness is the same from the Renix but I assume the visor used the same metri-pak connector.

I went through Comanche Dawn again to make sure my assumption on it having a factory dash harness was correct, didnt want to mess up there either lol.

They are part no 5FG76SS! they are meant for a RHD XJ. They fit fine. Rugged Ridge sells them. Surplus I guess. They are shorter than the MJ visors. But that is no big deal. They mount up just fine with new holes for the retainer clip. See more photos. I haven't seen the dash plug. Worse case I will create a special feed for it. Not a big deal. I wanted shorter ones as I am thinking of adding an overhead console at some point. They work by applying power to the single wire. The mount acts as the ground.
