John,
I saw this once on a '75 in a junkyard that I was getting parts out of.
The PO had replace the rubber with a pinch type of spring clip. They were a
little larger than the original rubber type but were much skinnier and all
metal. They screwed right into the original rivet holes. The design was much
the same as the rubber type, and held the visor the same way. It looked
better than original and really held the visor tight. I have no idea what
kind of car the came out of, but my guess would be another British one.
Anyone out there with something other than a Spridget or a B have any ideas?
I should have taken them but didn't need them at the time...
Steve.
