    My dual visors in my 2000 access cab won't stay up. Is this fixable or do I need to look for replacements? Surely some have had this same problem.:confused:

    I had this problem on my daughters 2010 Civic, not sure if this is the same problem you're having though. If yes then this repair works well -

    Crazy thing is this turned into a Class Action Lawsuit and Honda's fix was to provide one set of new visors...and in time these would break too :facepalm:

    Thanks, Tommy for my one and only reply! That might very well be a good way to fix my visors.

    On gen 3 4Runners it was common, as was our 2007. Internals would wear out and they would hang somewhere in middle eventually all the way down. No fix just replace, found OEM on Ebay for like $50 bucks.

    I'll try to get a couple pictures of these visors. I've never seen any like them. Thanks, Trooper2, for your feedback.

    @Roman (Toyota Parts) Get him pics, maybe your VIN#, unless you think they are aftermarket.

    I've had this happen on all three Camrys I had before my tundra, up through 2010. I used replacements from Amazon, think they were around $40 per side. Originally tried opening them up and gorilla gluing them back together, but I think a combination of garbage design and Arizona summer heat was too much.
