Sunvisors flapping when top down at highway speeds

When I drive at highway speeds with the top down, I can see the sunvisor material flapping in the wind. For example, the material covering the sunvisors is loose and therefore flaps around at highway speeds.

Anyone else seeing this and if so, does anyone have any suggestions to fix? I'm thinking I could always put a few stitches in each one with a needle and thread??

Let me know.
thanks,

Same thing happens here.

I also noticed the pleather on the rear seat backs lightly flapping at speeds above 60.

I don't think I've driven faster than about 50 miles an hour with the top down on our Mustang. Since you've mentioned this, I'll try it and see what happens.

Yes, why don't you try putting a few stitches in each sunvisor with a needle and thread and let us know how your solution to the problem works.

I'll take our convertible out with the top down and crank her up and let you guys know if I encounter the same problem with the sunvisors.
