I have had several sun visors sag on me over the years with these 90 model Volvos. The thing that stinks is the cost of the visors from the stealer, $135+ each, come on.

Well, today I had a 960 with the problem and I think I found an easy cure.

1. Find some kind of plastic that you can cut 2 = 1" x 2" pieces. I used straping material that holds plumbing pipes to the floor joist under the house.
2. Get 4 shallow headed screws (approx 1/2" long) that you can use to secure those plastic pieces on to the roof liner. Long enough to go into the liner backing but short enough not to damage the roof from the inside.
   
3. Attach those 2 plastic strips to the roof liner where you will not be able to see them when the visor is folded up.
4. Clean the plastic strips and the underside of the sunvisor real good with alcohol or something.
5. Get a couple of strips of velcro, preferably a color that match your hood liner material and sun visor. Attach the cloth / soft part of the velcro to the strips on the roof liner.
   
6. Press the rough part of the velcro to the soft part, remove the adheasive tape and raise / press the sunvisor against it.
   
7. Done. The sunvisor should stay up against the velcro. You can pull it down and put it back up with no problem.

I would be careful not to use to much velcro. The amount that I used should be about perfect.

 

This is a joke, right?

 

Nope, worked fine. Especially for those that don't want to spend the $135 for a new visor or can't find one at a yard.

 

Looks good to me

 

Very clever. Don't have this problem, but if I did (do)....

 

All worked as you showed until we can not get the velcro to stick to the actual visor itself. Cleaned it with alcohol, used various grades of velcro, getting frastrated! Any tips?

 

Not really. You can try asitone and maybe some better velcrow.

The person that purchased the car from me said that it only held for about 6 months.
