Start by removing the plastic cover using a thin but sturdy tool. This will expose a screw, which you need to unscrew and remove using a Torx T20. Next, you need to unclip the snap-fit side of the sun visor.

At this point, you can extract the sun visor. Before you can remove it completely, you need to disconnect the plug attached to it. Once you have disconnected the plug, you can pull away the sun visor.

This completes the disassembly. To fit the new sun visor, simply follow the steps in reverse, successfully completing the replacement.
