Sun visor and mounts

Good Afternoon,

I was driving my new ( old ) toy this past weekend and realized I am missing the sun visors and mounting hard ware for my 1966 Series V.

Any ideas where I can find these?

or maybe a suitable replacement set?

Thank you

Greetings again,

So I have been looking at the pictures on this site and almost all the Alpines are missing Sunvisors.

Any pros and cons? For the one picture I found, it looks like the visors might get in the way.

Any ideas? Comments?

Thanks again,

Emmett

The visors for s3-V are great wind deflectors for your forehead when your roof is down... And if the sun is mod afternoon they are good in the up position... In the down position they are very effective at blocking sun and the road ahead....

Not sure how tall you are...but the alpine screen is quite short and the windacreen frame is almost eye level... So visors are good for wind rather than sun.... But nice to have anyway

But a hat or fit some Tupperware Cobra types in tinted plastic. I was planning to buy just the hinges and then make my own. However the baseball cap is always there, doesn't fall off or drop down hit a bump but certainly can take off and end up on the road.
