How to Repair the Car Sun Visor

Model: Toyota Land Cruiser MK 8, J90 - Years 1996-2002

Repairing the sun visor of a Toyota Land Cruiser is a simple task but requires a few hours of work, especially if you want to repair the internal spring of the visor yourself. Start by removing the sun visor using a simple screwdriver. Once removed, use a craft knife to cut the upper part, as the mechanism is located inside. Remove the broken pieces with pliers and proceed to create the spring. To recreate the spring, you can use an old wiper blade base and a heat gun. With the help of the heat gun and pliers, heat the metal strip until it takes the necessary shape, as shown in the video, and then proceed with the installation. To install the spring, you will need pliers to insert the spring into the metal strip and then secure it with screws.
