Driver's Side Sun Visor Fell Off !!!?

[1981]

;help

Well, today I was driving to work, hit the road where I need to fix my sun visor to block the rising sun, and after about a minute the thing just fell right off and into my lap. The "L" bracket which goes into the main holding sleeve that is like a cylinder where the visor can rotate left and right seems to have broke into. Leaving part of itself in the cylinder sleeve. I took the cap of the cylinder sleeve off and pried the broken piece out, but my question is. Where can I replace this part without buying a new drivers side sun visor?

It was the elbow that broke allowing the sunvisor to fall out of the sleeve holder.

Greetings:

I have the company name at work that sells those parts. I ordered just the plastic bushing for $6.95 but they sell the metal elbow with the bushing and all parts for $25.95.

I will post the address on Monday if someone doesn't before then.

Thanks redhot80,

My problem was I could not find a parts company with pictures on the internet for me to see what I was really ordering, but Ecklers had just what I needed. Pictures and the parts with good explainations.

I am buying the
1977-82 Telescoping Sunvisor Elbow Repair Kit
$24.99 KT
from Eckler's. The kit comes with:
1 st of 27586 1979-82 Sunvisor Telescoping Elbow Bushing
1 ea of A1795 1977-82 Sunvisor Spring Hole Plug
1 ea of A1798 1979-82 Telescoping Sunvisor Pin Elbow
1 ea of A1799A 1977-82 Sunvisor Spring Retainer
1 ea of A1799B 1977-82 Sunvisor Elbow Spring

This should fix my sun blinding problems.
I will update this post with how the repair goes.
