jsnlvxr Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 Had a little play today and I was bored, so as I thought the old sun visors looked really tatty and dated I thought I would try my astra vxr (which ive stripped for track) visors, and to my amazement they fit spot on!! Ive even wired the lights in them to work. There a bit deeper then the old ones so gives a bit more coverage. The roof lining will be dyed black to match.

Hammer Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Combe is a great track. I used to run a MK1 Mexico around there on club and open days. Seen some great racing there. Porsche Club days were always a riot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Be very very careful of the roof. I did some mats and they didnt like getting wet, aero roofs 99% of the time leak, The mrs in a white top getting black dye on her wouldnt go down well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsnlvxr Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah thats a good point. Ive just read a thread about the dye not being permenant which is annoying. The roof doesnt seem to leak yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
