Sunvisor clips ?
#1

Ok so when I got my jag, both of the sunvisor clips were broken, no problem thinks I, and $20 later I have two new ones installed. However after driving a total of 24, yup 24 miles, both of the new ones have broken off ! The new ones I bought came in Jaguar packaging, so I guess they are original items.
Is there some trick to installing them, or have I just been unlucky, and should go ahead and buy 2 more ?
I'm thinking maybe on old stock, the plastic has become brittle, and that's why they broke so quickly, anyone have comments, or a solution ?

I had the same problem with mine as well. I inserted washers into the hole and they have lasted for two years and still going.
For some reason I recall finding square washers that were almost a perfect fit at my local hardware store.
Seems like there are a lot solutions to this problem...funny how Jaguar found none of them.

I bought OEM replacements and noticed the very tight fit with bar and clip right away, before installing, so I opened them up a little bit with my fingers before screwing them in. The visor bar goes in and out like it should. 6 months so far and no problems.
