I disagree. If the innovation had required something more than a thin flat piece of metal with a hole and a notch, then I would agree.
That's fine. You're free to not buy them. But until socialism takes over this country completely, he's free to hang out his shingle and offer his wares at any price he sees fit. That's what makes America great. Hell, given the price of visors and the failure rate, I think he should have picked a price around double what he's selling them for.

Definitely won't buy them.

Must have struck a nerve there. I just pointed out it's an overpriced simple item in my opinion. Didn't need a lecture on all that stuff.

Add me to the list of broken visor. Today I was driving and the visor just dropped and started to hang on the power wire. How much to replace it or would the dealership replace it?
So sorry to hear this! If you plan on moving forward with repairs and need an extra layer of assistance, let us know.

Some ... a handful of guys, just don't get it so to speak... I truly LOL at them..

I know I myself, would not take the time to make and test such a quality/finished product.... package that product..... go to all the trouble to advertise that product..... and then support it and field questions, accept liability for the product and more....... for the few very $ that, this manufacturer / seller is asking for the product.

Should also mention that the manufacturer, selling is paying at least $4.00 postage to the USPS to get that product to the buyer. And he has to package it up and take time to take to the USPS office.

Funny guys/gals will pay $2.00 to $3.00+ for a cup of Starbucks coffee that they down/drink in 15 min., but will not spend $25.00- for a product that is quality made, has a purpose and will send you many many $ over the long haul..

Can you fix the visor without replacing the whole thing? They said it wasn't cover under my service contract and to replace it will cost me about $300 and that seems crazy for just a visor.

@Old Dogger

Do yourself a favor ... be pro active... and install the Taccom sun visor clips. Since your visors brackets are still intact go with THIS , $19.95 (cheap insurance) Taccom offering. Install before your visor bracket(s) break.

Jeep Wrangler JL Sun Visor Broken 61VIdpLVsUL._AC_SL1500_


Also, do yourself another favor .... since you have a 2 dr. JL, buy some seat return inserts for both front seats... to keep as spares in your 2 dr. JL.

When you break the ones in the seat rails ... the one for the driver's seat, there will be a good chance you will not be able drive your JL. Forum search "seat return inserts".

This thread should be stickied in the main page. These are worth every penny. I was worried that since mine was already broke this wouldnā€™t work. Popped the visor back into its place and put these on and itā€™s like jeep shouldā€™ve done this to begin with. I highly recommend these to anyone. Visor broken or not.

My 2018 JL driver side sun visor is dangling too. This is a SAFETY HAZARD especially when I commute west into the setting sun through miles of construction on a busy interstate highway. Jeep knows that this is a common problem, so WHY IS THERE NOT A SAFETY RECALL?
