No, but here are two ideas:
1. Up the road a piece from you is David Boger at everydayxj. Mny good used and NOs parts. Probably no NOs visors, but may eell have a pair of nice used ones. Goodguy, posts here, good pricing.
2. Some time back a Jaguar owner in AZ fixed his sloppy visors , A local upholsterr redid them. slicker than as new!!!
It is the foam ins8ide that returns to dust and as such leaves only the vinyl cover as a sloppy bag. Take 'em apart, rebuild the card/foam insert, slip the cover back on. Caveat, an untried theory...

There was a xj6 s1 rebuild thread a while back by giga-pete and Jamie (sorry but I don't have more detail on how to find it). He carefully removed the cover, got a yoga mat and cardboard and built a new insert and then sewed it back up. Looked great But the easiest is, like Carl said, go to www.everydayxj.com and leave a note for David letting him know what you need. Be sure to include the color. He will get right back to you with availability and price. David is an amazing resource and his prices can't be beat. And if something isn't right he will make it right pronto.

I got mine from a 1986 XJ-S hardtop / coupe. They are a direct fit and reached perfectly into the existing clips. They were in fact the interior color used in Vanden Plas XJ-6, I painted them black with a can of vinyl paint. They have not dissolved into dust like the original ones. Here's a dark-garage picture, at least you can see the outline.

I have a pair of doeskin color XJ40 visors. I have no idea if they're adaptable to an SIII but let me know if you want to try. They have electrical connectors to wire up the mirror lights, so that could be a hindrance.
