lighted visor disassembly February 22, 2009, 06:44:23 PM Anyone ever done it? I've started tearing into one and I'm pretty sure I'm tearing it up in a non-recoverable manner. At least not easily repaired. Quote Selected

lighted visor disassembly Reply #2 – February 23, 2009, 01:03:27 PM I've got the answer now. Maybe the judicious application of glue will fix the damage done during exploratory surgery.The unlighted visors have a fiberboard insert riveted to the bar.The lighted visors are two pieces of plastic glued/fused together. The lining is stuffed in the resulting seam. The vanity mirror is removable by carefully prying at the lower edge at both corners. The electrical contact also serves as the spring for the vanity 'lid'.Remove the mirror, then the covering material can be removed. If the plastic halves are separable, please let me know how to do it. Quote Selected

The horizontal metal bar across the top serves as a spring for the lid and contact switch. Three tabs along the bottom edge of the mirror lock it in place. The visor itself is two pieces of plastic glued(?) together, trapping the mounting rod in place.Bottom is an unlighted visor. The mirror is stapled in place. Quote Selected

lighted visor disassembly Reply #13 – February 27, 2009, 11:33:43 PM If anyone is considering the Ranger OH console and has the longer style visor, I think the only thing needed is to carefully remove the cloth cover from the tip, cut to the plastic to fit, then re-cover over the amputated area.
