Installation & Mounting Instructions

- Full SuperVisor or Passenger Side Only SuperVisor

Step 1 - Removing Sun Visors

- Driver Side shown - Installation is same for Passenger Side!

Begin the installation by removing the driver and passenger sun visors. Identify each visor with tape or other marking to

indicate the driver from the passenger side unit; they are not always identical. First remove the plastic visor pivot bracket

cover by prying the cover apart at the thin slit shown in Figure 1 with a thin instrument like a putty knife. There are small

keeper tabs which hold the cover to the pivot bracket (Figure 2 shows the locations of the tabs). Pry the slit open and pull

the cover down and away from the headliner at the same time. It helps to pull the edge of the cover outward and down

in the area of each tab to help release the cover from the pivot bracket. When one of the tabs is released, it is easier to

release the cover at the other tab locations (Figure 3 shows the cover removed). Next there are three screws that hold the

pivot arm bracket of the sun visor to the headliner. Remove the three screws using a small #15 Torx screwdriver as shown

in Figure 4. The screws do not have to be completely removed from the plastic pivot arm bracket to release the pivot arm

(see Figure 5). Unplug the visor vanity mirror light wire if the vehicle is so equipped (see Figure 6).

Step 2 - Remove the visor retaining clips

Pry open the small cover on the sun visor retaining clip with a small flat bladed screwdriver to gain access to the sun visor

retaining clip screw (see Figure 7). Remove the single #15 Torx screw that holds each clip in place as shown in Figure 8.

Note: On later model vehicles the plastic visor clips are held to the headliner fabric with the stamped sheet metal

clips that are located above the headliner fabric (See Figure 9). Carefully pull and angle the plastic clips from side

to side until the stamped sheet metal clips release the plastic clips from the headliner. Remove the stamped clips

and discard them so they don't interfere with the Unit's Installation or cause rattles after the installation.
