Doug -

I will send you a copy of the instructions for the sun visor.  I sent a
copy to Michael today.  It is GMC part #2233288 outside sun visor.  It
does show 3 holes on each side to attach to the rain gutter over the
door.  The center support is two pieces bolted together in sort of a
triangle shape.  The long side of the triangle bolts to the center of
the visor and the short side clamps to the center windshield bar.  It
doesn't look like it's the right size and shape until you actually put
it in place.  The visor fits pretty close to the windshield at the top
edge.

Mine has the chrome around the outside edge as part of the visor assembly &
I think it is a Chevy OEM part.  It has 3 screw holes on each side.  Could
you send me a copy, or post on a web page, the instruction sheet?  I would
like to see the details of how the center post looks & mounts.
