Sun visor issues

I had such good luck with help on the floor mats I thought I'd seek suggests on my sun visor. My 2012 GT convertible drivers' side has two issues. 1) the clip that the visor rest in is apparently tight thus has slowly worn through the material on the right side of the visor from trying to get the visor out. 2) the three button garage door opener keeps falling out.

A simple solution is buying a new or used one. I've been looking and they are running from $125.00 to $170.00. Second thought, (if it works) put a back Mustang Covin mask with emblem over the worn spot.

2) The garage door opener... keeps falling out of the visor and I'm certain one of these times it's going flying when the top is down. I did put some electrical tape in trying to tighten the devise. That was a failure.


It's such a struggle to get this out, it has worn due to the pulling on the shade.

This door opener devise keeps falling out of the visor.

Pm Me Your Vin Number and Let Me Do Some Research Which May Help With Solution!

Do You Even Use Door Opener Function and Or Lighted Mirrors??? A Base Visor is a Possible Option if You Don't Use or Need Features.

I do use the garage door opener daily. Mirror occasionally, I guess often enough to keep it..

Don't know what Pm me means. Different means other than on the site?

Alright Here Goes The Visor Info! They Both Look To Be Discontinued New! These Are The Original By VIN!

Be Advised Coupe Vs Vert Are Different!

BR3Z-7604104-AA Number Replaced By DR3Z-7604104-AA Fits 2012-2014 Passenger Side

https://www.fordpartsgiant.com/parts...tra2=&filter=()

BR3Z-7604105-DA Driver Side


So Get This it Appears A Drivers Side Option is Still Available New For The Vert But The Language on The Sticker is Spanish!

Here are The Used Listings on Ebay! LOOK FOR SOME BABIED ONES! I Would Stick With 2012-2014 and Not Force The Issue With The 2010-2011.

Ebay By Passenger OEM Part Number

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...sors&_osacat=0


Here Is The Odd Thing The 2010-2011 Still Show a Lot Of The Choices Available. I Seem To Recall Some Wiring Differences in the Early Cars and Of Course all The Visor Color Choices Shown. Just an FYI!

We'll be gone all day today. I'll call FordPartsGiant, and make sure the visor will fit a convertible. Thanks for the help.

States Convertible in Sub Text. The Later Production Date I Believe is Just Due to The Fact The Car Was Not Exported To Spanish Language Countries Until Then. But Always Good To Double Check. You Can Also Purchase at Any FORD Dealer Though Pricing Will Vary!Ford DR3Z7604105BA


This part fits the vehicle you selected:
My Vehicle: 2012 Ford Mustang
The location this part fits:
  • Driver Side
The vehicle options this part fits:
  • Fit Note: Convertible, With Spanish Language Label
  • Production Date: 06/2014-06/2014

When I put in only the car description it says the Spanish one will fit. Almost ordered it but got interrupted with wife's health issues. Went back on today and decided to use the VIN. Using the VIN, program states not the correct visor for my car.

I'll give them a call when I'm not working with my wife but looks like I'm going to have to find a way to repair it.

I'll also check with my mechanic and the local Ford Dealer.

Your Vin Will Only Show What Originally Came With Vehicle. I Believe it's Same Visor Just The Spanish Vs English. I Did Ford Dealer Parts From 1985-2017 You Learn a Few Tricks! Hopefully You Will Get an Experienced Counter Person At The Dealership Who Has Been Around The Block!
