Hi guys, the rhs sun visor in my cabbie has ripped where the clear plastic pocket was attached to the vinyl. Over the years the grey vinyl has shrunk back so the split can’t be glued back together.

Any idea where I can get this repaired/recovered? Or does anyone know where I can get a replacement visor? Can’t find them from bmw or on real OEM.

Any help appreciated.

..... and a brand new shiny one from BMW is 150 euro's - so at least there's a choice!

But you have to buy both sides as they won't match.......

and the UK ones are reversed for Europe and US - ie. the mirror is on the right hand one, no?

I've seen pairs new for 190 euro on the bay of E - but probably euro trash version.
