Coyote Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 My sun visors are shot. Not only is the covering bad, but they must have gotten wet at some point. The backing (fiber board?) Is broken in several spots, warped and expanded/coming apart (like fiber board soaked in water). I'm planning on getting the headliner redone and would like new or good sun visors too. Basically the only thing salvageable is the mounting bracket and metal rod. Is something in that shape rebuildable? Or does anyone have a source for sun visors? Also, the driver's side retaining clip is broke. Anyone know where to get one of those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 The visor is rebuildable, you just have to weigh that effort vs finding a decent used one (note that there are two different lengths over the yesrs). The clips can usually be found on ebay (used if course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has to pop up at a decent price sooner or later. If the sun visors are salvageable I'll hit up the headliner guy. At least it would match the headliner.

Didn't realize there was an option for overhead console, mine doesn't have one. Just thinking, but if there's an over console option I'd assume it would be the same one the XJ Cherokees use. If that's the case it may be possible for me to get my hands on an entire overhead console and sun visors assembly. Has anyone done this or know if the XJ Cherokee overhead consoles and sunvisors are compatible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdog Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 No overhead console was available for the Comanche, others have installed one but it takes some modification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 Found a solution to the sun visor clips. Ordered a new set of 93 -98 Jeep Grand Cherokee sun visor clips off of eBay for less than $20 delivered. They are an 1/8" wider and 1/8" shorter than Comanche clips and you'll have to cut the back plastic prong flush. Took less than 10 mins to modify and install both clips. Not a perfect fit but definitely functional and don't require any mod to the truck/mounting plate. They'll keep my sun visors from flopping around until I'm lucky enough to stumble across that gray factory Comanche sunvisor clip unicorn in the junk yard. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
