Default Drooping sunvisor fix?

Hey all,

I noticed recently that the passenger sun visor on my 2010 XKR Coupe is drooping an inch or so. While the driver's side snaps firmly up against the headliner, the passenger side won't stay up the same way.

I haven't seen any means of tightening/adjusting the tension or position of the visor, it seems to just be press fitted to the mount.

Does anyone know if I can fix this myself with minimal fuss? If not, I'll have it fixed under warranty, but I'd rather save myself a trip to San Francisco and a day waiting in a cafe while they work on it...

Thanks,

Skeeter

mine did this. removed the mirror and determined it had separated inside. used some gorilla glue to reconnect the two halts and put in clamp to dry. reinstalled mirror and all is well. Mine was out of warranty. You probably want to take to dealer and get a new one. Fix worked but if it screwed up the visor I had to get a new one anyway. No adjustment I could find.

Thanks rtmyers1. Sounds like a clear case for taking it to the dealer. I was hoping there was a simple way to flex it into position or adjust it in some clever fashion.
