So, I hated looking at the huge yellow warning labels on my sun visors. I removed my visors and was able to get the labels off and it looks great.

Well, when I went to install them back in, I noticed one of the metal clips wouldn't snap back in. When I looked at it...I noticed once side got bent during removal. I tried to bend it back and it snapped. So, now I can't secure the visor.

Anyone know if I can order these small metal clips?

Sorry about the broken piece, but that looks great. Any tips for removing the stickers? I had thought about it in the past, but figured it would look bad where the sticker used to be.

Someone here sells cover up stickers, haven't tried them yet.

I too want to remove the ugly yellow stickers.

...I used a hair dryer on high heat, peeled right off for me. YMMV.

I removed the visor and then used a small hand held steamer. I basically used it on the corner until I could start to peel it up. I would steam a small area and peel. I'd steam on both sides and it came right off. After that I used a tooth brush with some goo b gone to remove any residue.

As for the clips...I found a guy selling some on e-bay. They were a bit pricey... $10 shipped but at least I have them now.

Well I already ordered mine. I have since found other places that sell them for about $5 each...so it's not the end of the world. The only once I found on Amazon were a different shape. What I ended up with is the exact OEM Ford part so I know it will fit correctly.

Resurrecting an old thread -- because I didn't find much information about this clips for the visor anywhere and a search brought me here.

I had to replace the visor on the driver side in my 2017. The mirror light and homelink quit working. Not a tough job (not sure why the you tube video I found it took the guy 2 hours to pop the little cover off). The metal clip is something I would advise just going ahead and buying one because it is very easy to break it like the OP did and I did.

This is the part number from Ford in the picture. The GM clip is about twice as wide and won't fit. And Ford dealer locally charged $5,27 for the clip (a pair of the GM clips was $4 at O'Reilly).
