I have fitted a pair of new sunvisors to my Deluxe, after successfully installing an identical pair about 5 years ago to another Deluxe. This latest pair are really very loose on the pivots.
Anyone have any handy dandy hints for have to stiffen up the movement on the pivot pins.
Cheers

Today.
Problem solved by creating a bit more bend into each of the pivot pins.
Sunvisors park where they were intended to now.
