Introduction

A revised procedure has been developed to ensure proper removal and installation of the sunvisor. Please use the following procedure for removal and installation of the sunvisor.





Warranty Information

Repair Procedure

Removal:





1. Disengage the 4 claws from the sunvisor plastic bracket cover.





2. Remove the plastic bracket cover and set aside for later installation.

3. Carefully pull straight down on the Sunvisor sub-assembly and remove it from the opening in the metal roof panel.








NOTE

If the attaching clips remain in the metal roof panel, pinch the clip tabs together and rotate away from the connector as shown in Figure 3 (if equipped with a vanity light), then remove the clips and reinstall the clips back into the sunvisor bracket from the direction shown in Figure 4.
Installation Procedure:





1. Partially install the bracket cover into the sunvisor bracket making sure both temporary set claws are engaged as shown in Figure 5.

Make sure to ONLY partially install the bracket cover into the bracket during installation, because damage to the clip, sunvisor mount or roof sheet metal tabs may occur if the bracket cover is fully in the sunvisor bracket.





2. Install the sunvisor assembly into the opening in the sheet metal roof panel by grasping the sunvisor assembly with two hands and pushing the bracket upward as shown in Figure 6.








3. Make sure the sunvisor bracket is flush with the headliner all away around the perimeter of the bracket as shown in Figure 7 and then push the bracket cover upward to engage all 4 claws at the same time as shown in Figure 8.

4. Confirm the proper operation of the sunvisor and the operation of the vanity light.
