Just a word about the Rosen's; what a poor mounting system and very little help from the company. BTW, I spent about 10 hours installing mine. I threw away the instructions and feel like I got a much better installation. The time consumer is bending and shaping their make shift backer plates. Absolutely ridiculous design. Mickey to the full extent.

I have photos if you step down to their product

That good to know about the rosen visors. I was thinking about installing a set in mine. There was a post about someone replacing the existing visor with a visor similar to the rosen, but using the existing mount. I've tried searching but am having trouble finding it. If I do I'll post a link.

I looked at those before I bought the Rosen system. Maybe I should have gone that route.

Now that I have the Rosen's I love em but they were just a pain to install.

I put the Plane Plastics visors in my 65 model - very happy with them

I installed the Plane Plastics Visors
they were easy to install & I am very pleased with them.

I bought the Plane Plastics to replace the original equipment. Quality looks good and it's a straight replacement for the originals, but I couldn't get the bracket under the plastic center o'head console tightened down enough to keep them from flopping down (not enough friction).

So - put the originals back in for now. Still working with them and plan on using them but if anyone else who bought the Plane Plastics has run into this, tips are appreciated.

Thanks -

Joe,

I had to use a new & little bit longer screw on mine to get it to hold.

Thanks Roger and Howard -
I'll work with them and figure something out. They're nice visors; I'm most pleased with the quality, just need to to keep them flapping around in my face.

Maybe with the visors flapping that might keep a guy awake while he's
flying??? ha ha

Bumping old threads today...

Here's an (awful) pic of my OEM sunvisors. They're center mount and shaped like the Pressurized pics on Plane Plastics website. But mine is naturally aspirated.

So should I get the ARCF visor that doesn't look like mine but it's the right application or the ARCF that looks like mine but it's the wrong application?

Thanks,

John
