moosebreath Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 I managed to break the RH stock visor in my '96 J in half today. (Caught it on the shoulder armor of my motorcycle coat ...) I do not want to start another argument about the merits of various visors but would very much like to find a stock replacement part. I believe the Mooney part number is 1500083-13. Perhaps someone has a source or, better yet, a pair left over from a replacement project. Thanks for the the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 I may have some. More info or a pic would help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosebreath Posted May 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Here is a picture of the RH lens laying upside down on my bench as I attempt to glue it together. This is the part I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrBill Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 I bought some smoke and green sheets from TAP Plastics. Then I made a plywood template and used a router to cut out new visors for the flight school at our airport. Came our great. Got the welting at McMaster -Carr.

Releew Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I used Optical Quality smoked 3/16 lexan. Used a band saw for the rough cut then belt sanded to the traced line. I made mine 1" lower to block out more of the windshield. Used 120 grit to curve the edge then wet sanded with 400. I flame polished the remaining scratches. For the mounts I used landing gear straps for RC planes from Dubro. Looks great and more robust! The Optical Quality Lexan was more expensive but is is truly like looking through a great pair of sunglasses! Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
