    You are the man! Perfect instructional video. I'm about to redo my headliner in my Silverado, and was worried about switching the color, but now I feel confident and going for it and having matching sun visors

    Just completed my headliner and sunvisors, thank you for the education on how to recover the visors! I've never needed to recover then in the past, but I changed the color of the headliner this time and wanted the visors to match. Came out great!

    Using this video as a guide, I recovered my visors on my '96 Buick Regal.. Turned out PERFECT.. Like brand New !! Super Easy, just take your time.. My drivers visor had literally disintegrated and shredded in the last month.. I used a plastic divider from a parts box to tuck in the material.. Worked GREAT !!
    THANK YOU for posting this Video !!

    I watched your video how to install new car carpet. And, you were right on. I did my headliner, two toned it. And then somethings here and there(Like you said take your time. And be patient) I did my sunvisors lastly. My 1993 thunderbird(Selina) looks like a new car. You schooled me alot. Thanx...

    I want to thank you for taking the time to put this video out. I have a 2009 Range Rover HSE. After replacing my headliner, and my pillow covers with new upholstery my old visors did not match and replacing the visors was not a solution either because they don’t make visors that match.
    I destroyed my first pair of visors when my upholstery guy told me that the only way to reupholster them wants to separate the mirror advisor in half and then glue them back together. That was a terrible idea because the hinge mechanism that keeps the visor up it does not work properly if you separate the visor into two parts.
    Fortunately, I was able to find a pair of preowned visors for my car and learning from my mistake. I made a second attempt. The most challenging part for my range rover visors, is the semi circular part of the visor that clips into the swivel hardware, because the fabric will not stretch far enough to fit into the groove in the middle. I figured that gluing the material into this semi circle was the best solution, and it turned out good. Also, going around the support arm was another area that was challenging, but my solution was to create a rolled over and glued cuff and then that way the visor can move back-and-forth on its bar and not rub against the fabric.
    What I also found that worked very well was after I had fabric covering the whole visor. I went around the outside and pinched the material together to seal it, rather than just tucking it in one side at a time doing this enabled me to tuck the fabric into the split groove. One time it pulled the visor nice and tight and I think it’s going to hold everything together overtime better than doing them one at a time, my scene came out looking perfect. The tool that I used to press the fabric in was a 1 inch round and spatula from the kitchen which has a dual edge rather than a putty knife, so it didn’t tear of the material ever.
    Thank you again I would not have been able to do this without your video

    Thank you! I just replaced the headliner fabric in my 2005 Silverado. The only fabric I could find (locally) is a darker shade than original. I didn't realize I could recover my visors until I saw this video. I'm pretty sure I have enough fabric left over - so tomorrow, I'm going to do the visors!

  • @olenaerhardt7725
    @olenaerhardt7725 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for a great film. When you put the headliner back, can you attach the headlight wires to the ceiling or to the headliner? Originally it was attached to the headliner, but seems easier to attach to the ceiling. Thank you again.

    • @adamkorekach9936
      @adamkorekach9936 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I left mine attached to the headliner. The factory used a really strong glue to attach the wiring harness to the headliner shell so I wasn’t gonna attempt to break all those glue points. My Silverado came with the snow plow prep package, so that double wire did stay attached to the ceiling.

    @morriscali4145 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    In the video there is no mention of removing the small spikes that are molded into the plastic around the edges top and bottom where the material is stuffed and I cannot push it in without tearing the material can I use a hacksaw blade to cut the spikes as they overlap one another, will there still be enough friction to keep the material from coming out. Great Video BTW

    • @adamkorekach9936
      @adamkorekach9936 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I am wondering if the spikes need to be removed as well. It looks like he just runs the putty knife right along the edges. I tried spreading the two halves and they don’t seem to open up quite enough.

    Thanks for the video. With your help, I just reupholstered sun visors in my “new” 2004 Solara convertible. The visors can’t be opened up (like yours) so I used your tuck method but left the mounting pin in (rusted into place).
