Removing/Replacing Honda Visor

[@ChemLancer]

Easy peasy. Sunvisor in daughter's 2008 Honda Accord had been broken for several years. Finally had enough when I went to drive it yesterday. I came in the house, search for a video, found yours, went back out to the car to remove the visor, drove to the junkyard, pulled one out of a wrecked Accord for $7, drove back home and washed it up, then installed it. Process from searching the video to final installation less than an hour. Thank you!

[@surbyave]

I performed this on my 2010 Honda Pilot. I spent a few minutes watching this video, then spent about 2 minutes removing the old and replacing with a new. The visual and explanation made for smooth sailing. Thanks!

[@gravity3303]

I just did this very thing on my 2011 pilot it was a 5 min job

[@hotsauce7362]

I tried it on my 2013 Honda Accord. Works like a charm. I spent 10 minutes watching this video over and again... spent 1 minute removing it... THANKS!!!!

[@dukedenile4871]

Great short video. Unlike many car wiring connector videos. Video shows exactly how the clip works. Thank you.

[@janetditroia6774]

Thank you for taking off the visor and showing specifically the spot where the screwdriver goes, That makes it so much easier to connect and disconnect. 😊

[@rodzilla134]

2023 and still a relevant video. Just bought our daughter a used 2008 accord. Every older Honda we drove, including this one had a sagging driver's side visor. I would have NEVER figured out how to swap this and probably would have broken something. So, THANK you for an easy video!

[@rothbj1]

I never ever thought this would be as watched as it has been. Glad it helped!

[@DustyCowdog]

You are a danged genius! It took two seconds! This visor was always sagging down in front of my face every time I hit a small bump... ordered a new Honda visor and it was so easy after watching your video! I would have messed with it for 5 months with out the video. Cheers!

[@tombutcher5776]

Did you replace the entire sun visor or just that part that clips in?

[@DustyCowdog]

@@tombutcher5776 -- I did the exact replacement that the video demonstrated... the whole visor with electrical connector. Cheers...

[@rothbj1]

@@tombutcher5776 The whole thing.

[@donaldgomezerving3287]

Man oh man, thank you kindly for showing me how to fix my darn visor!! Thing right fell in my lap like it gave up the ghost one darn hot day, and here I go putting my sweat, blood and tears into forcing the darn thing back into the hole it done crawled loose from, when what I really was needing was just a little fingertip finesse to ease the sucker into place, doggone it!!! Thank you again, good sir, for passing on this subtle, yet much needed knowledge to the Masses.

[@rothbj1]

Glad it helped! Sometimes that tab gets damaged and it keeps falling out. If it happens again, search for 'Fix a Honda Visor that keeps falling out of the roof'.

[@donaldgomezerving3287]

@@rothbj1 I shall most definitely do exactly that if'n it was to find itself back on the hang, good sir. A kind thank you once again seems in order now, don't it. Well I do thank you.

[@gerardogalvv]

This video is so much clearer than a couple other out there! Thanks!

[@rothbj1]

Thanks much.

[@drumskas]

My goodness you saved me. Thanks. I was utilizing other videos where nobody explains this portion. You need to basically prep it before you start installing it. They don't show that in other videos !!! Thanks

[@thedoobie1]

100% this. Once I staged the three prongs by rotating them the visor went in easy!!

[@teamkeller]

Thanks for the easy explanation. I just had my 2009 headliner replaced. The installer must not have relatched the visor properly as it fell the first time it was used for the side setting. I watched this video and placed it back in, as described, being sure to push the visor toward the windshield. Now it's as good as new!

[@presentationplus-ups]

Thank you for this video. You saved me hours of frustration! Much appreciation!

[@cristipielea]

This is the best honda sun visor removal and replacement video to be made, without the visual explanation, i could not of done it. I very difficulty removed it, but you helped me so much with installing a new one in. i just couldnt figure it out. Thank you

[@fishbonz1000]

Best tutorial on Honda visor removal by far. Thanks for saving me the headaches!!!!

[@sdeliasr]

Thank you! Getting mine out was *still* tricky - it would have been impossible without this video. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[@mfiore14]

Thank you thank you thank you! I’ve had this thing hanging down for months. Nobody could figure it out. Even a mechanic couldn’t help me. Watched your video and had it fixed in 10 minutes!!!

[@rothbj1]

I never imagined this many people would see this video. I shot it in one take and wasn't even sure it would help anyone at all. It makes my day when it helps someone fix their visor themselves. Thanks for leaving a comment!

[@tenneildaniels]

Amazing job on your video... i wish you were the director of all of the "how to's" online. You are the SPIELBERG of instructional videos

[@alexandrucontescu1104]

Excellent explained! It took me only 2 minutes to replace the sun visor on Honda cr-v 2019. Thank you!

[@SanMateoClips]

Thanks a million. Super easy to uninstall and reinstall a new one. This is the second visor in 30k miles so you think they would fix this issue. But thanks to you the labor is free!

[@williamcreek6349]

I watched many a video on how to fix a visor on my 2017 Honda CRV before landing here. Clearly this video is the best of the lot. Armed with this information the visor was out and in within 10 minutes total. Thanks.

[@rothbj1]

Thanks. Can't believe how many have watched this and commented.

Direct and to the point.Took me less then 10 minutes to do.Thanks.

[@eehuitay8089]

You saved my life!! This visor dropped off of my husband new car and I panicked for some time there trying to figure out how I could put it back. Was preparing myself to face my husband's wrath(it's a new car F.Y.I). Till I found this video!!! OMG!!! Thank you so much!!!

[@hotsauce7362]

"wrath"??? A broken visor is the least of your concern...

[@pfedorch]

Pushing that clip in was a real challenge (for me), but I finally got it to move by using a mirror and looking into the car at the clip opening through the windshield. My wife sat in the drivers seat and pulled the visor back toward her (and thus the driver's side window) little by little, while I worked the clip with a long (9 inch), thin flathead screwdriver (counterintuitively, as I started out assuming a short one would have to be used). Before each push of the screwdriver, I first positioned it using the mirror, then put down the mirror and used both hands to apply the pressure in and forward towards the "wall." Interestingly, once it moved a small amount, my wife was able to move the visor back ("reload") without dislodging the now partially "submerged" clip, and then pull it back again, very slowly, as I positioned the screwdriver tip and then pushed the clip in - and under - one final time. As rothbj1 stated in the video, the visor literally fell out of the ceiling. Removing the electrical coupling and then installing the new visor was simple: Just reattached the coupling, positioned the mechanism into the ceiling (it fit snuggly once the pole and triple prong thing slipped into their respective slots, which are easy to see looking up into the empty hole) and gently pushed the visor toward the windshield. Once I heard that click, I knew my work was done. Thanks for the great video; it helped a LOT!!

[@rothbj1]

Glad it helped. Always happy to see comments from people that found it useful. I never thought this many people would watch this...

[@barbaraday1]

@@rothbj1 🤣 I have a question. Most frustrations and of course it would be....is the floppy or loose visors. Mine is the opposite. The driver side with way more usage....become stove up very difficult to lower and put back. Whhhhhy 😭?

[@rothbj1]

@@barbaraday1 Never seen one that gets stiffer. Most get too floppy and dangle down.....

[@barbaraday1]

@@rothbj1 I have had 2 vehicles do that. And I'm no heavy weight❗I thought that maybe I can adjust it somehow. Maybe I will just call the dealership to see if they have heard of that....not gonna buy one yet.

Rothbj, thanks so much for posting this . Just replaced the passenger visor on my wife's 2011 Accord and it worked great! Be blessed!

[@retropickups2000]

This was extremely helpful Whoever reading this remember Push the tab to the side not just directly inside

Great video, just the right explanation, it still took a bit of time and waking up my neighbors after accidentally honking the car a few times lol 😊

[@rondakeller3013]

I just used it on my 2018 Honda CRV. Thank you for your amazing video. Worked perfect!

[@prestonshute7243]

Ok After all the videos on how to remove and install the sun visor yours was the best. So why is that? Everyone else’s visor video was basically the same but you said get a stool and place by the door. That made it possible for me to see the latch and see if it was turning. I had struggled for over a two hours last night. 😡🤯🤬 Then this morning I watched your video and had the old one out and the new one, it took about 15 minutes. Thank you so much.

[@SA-mu8hk]

thank u bro! I spent alot of stress trying to put it back in

[@jaumeassensserra1605]

Great help, so easy. It took me two min to replace my broken sunvisor with a second hand one bought from the Internet. As he says, once you know the secret its very easy.

[@vincentluu14]

Had a heck of a time trying to get the tab down. No leverage, bad angle, etc. I ended up using a stubby screwdriver with a square bit for more surface area contact with the tab.

[@christief6120]

Thanks for this. Allowed us to get ours off our 19 pilot to try to get it to not be an arm wrestling match to get it pushed back up to the ceiling after lowering it. With some ingenuity we got the spring clamp to loosen and hopefully It will work like the passenger side one does.

[@MrGottaRide]

Thanks. What a pain in the arse removing it. This was a big help

[@aldo5658]

Thank you so much, u explained AND showed it all which helped me out everything together. Had a hard time putting it back in but I plug it and THEN install and turned which I was doing backwards. You the man bro!

[@nrahomes]

Thank you I have been waiting to remove this visor for two years. Couldn’t find a decent video explaining how to do it until I ran into yours. I wanted to take it off before ordering a new just to see if I could fix it and reinstall it. From the looks of my visor I’m going to have to replace it. It hangs dong a bit. It won’t sit back up flush with the head liner. They are stupid expensive. If someone could tell me where I could get another one cheap but new I would appreciate it. Most of the cabin components I see at junk yards they are dirty and smells moldy from someone leaving the windows open or shattered windshields .

Very straightforward explanation. 👍

[@jackthecardcounter3332]

Thx! Quick and straight to the point.

[@zone07]

Thank you for saving me a trip to the dealer. A month after we bought the car we moved the visor to the door side and it fell off. It seems they didn't lock it back into place during production. I was dreading going to the dealer and having to wait 2hours even if it's still under warranty.

[@rothbj1]

I had something similar happen on another Honda visor. The tab had gotten all mangled by a previous owner and wouldn't stay in place. I drilled a 1/16th hole in it and threaded in a 2-56 machine screw. That fixed it.

[@EllieLove21]

Within the past two weeks, I've rented two different CR-Vs, and the visor literally fell out in both of them when I went to turn it to the door side.

[@GrandpasWorkbench]

Video is factually correct except one thing. When putting it in it does not simply click into place. Took me two hours and screwdriver prying and turning the visor at the same time to finally get it to lock into place.

[@hikgerguy1234]

Thanks for this video. That tab was a bit difficult pushing in. I started with a standard, small flat head, but then switched to an offset screwdriver which had a thicker head. It was still hard pressing that tab in, but I got it. I've owned a 1990 and 1995 Honda with over 250,000 miles and currently own a 2004 Honda with 257,000 miles. NEVER had this problem with any of those cars. Did Honda change the way they manufactured these visors for the 7th gen? Got mine at BK Honda for $125 (including tax). This is a fair amount of money for something that shouldn't have failed after 10 years (on my 2014 Honda Accord).

[@realty5763]

[@KO8789]

Hi there, thanks for the video.. however, mine having a bit different problem than this. The base plastic that suppose to rotate now came off/out of alignment, and it is stucked. Any chance it could be fix? I try to press/force it back to the original position, but im struggled and worry it might break any internal plastic parts. Thanks dude.
