A64Pilot Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 On 12/31/2020 at 3:48 AM, Adi said: Hi Don, Are you still making these? I have a 1983 J model and the stock copilot visor is loose. It seems the plastic tabs that are supposed to hold it in place relative to the metal bar are cracked and not providing enough friction to hold the weight. I think I could probably fix that part but would be happier replacing the set with something sturdier/larger. If you're not making them, perhaps you could advise on what kind of material you used for the visor proper? Adi you can replace those clips with a small DG clamp, that works well. You’ll just use one of the two holes of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gevertex Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 @DonMuncy Are you still making these? I'd love to buy a set. My factory visors are past their service life, not wanting to spend $600+ on a pair of Rosens. If not I'd love to understand what parts you used so I can make my own.

DonMuncy Posted March 25 Author Report Share Posted March 25 I would be glad to show you the parts used in my visors, but unless you are a skilled machinist, (with time on your hands) it would be virtually impossible to make your own for anything less than Rosen charges. I will be glad to furnish you a set, but I do not have a set in inventory right now. I have a major project going on right now, so it will take me a little while to get some made. If you like, I will let you know when I have some available. It will likely be a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note: a new user PMed me and suggested I send an email to you. The email they provided is obviously not your email address. They wanted immediate payment and a shipping address. I've tagged this as a scam. Just a heads up for anyone else this happens to. They didn't get any money from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko182 Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 FWIW I have a pair of dons visors that I’d be willing to sell if you want. Nothing wrong with them at all. Installed them and removed them simply because on the pre 04 long bodies, the dash sits a bit too high and always got in the way. Shoot me a message if you’re interested.

DonMuncy Posted March 26 Author Report Share Posted March 26 Gevertex, If you decided to get the set from Niko, let me know, and I will take "make visors" off my list of things that need to get done soon. Incidentally, the visors are pretty sturdy, and having a used set should not present any problems. The shades might get scratched some in use, but they are replaceable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas1142 Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 Hi Don, Glad this post is making the rounds again. If you are still making them or have a pair handy, I would appreciate it. I have a 1997 M20J. Thanks Angelos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acekng1 Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 Hi Don, I am also interested in a set of visors the next time you are making them. My 68 M20F has the shade attachments in the outside corners so I believe yours will work perfectly. Thank you, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoot me a message if you’re interested. Just catching up to all the replies. I've been traveling by Mooney (the best way to travel). I'd love to take them off your hands. I'll send you a PM and see if we can come to an arrangement. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonMuncy Posted March 27 Author Report Share Posted March 27 Angelos and Paul. i have you down for a set each, as soon as I can get them done. I have just moved from one residence to another, and am absolutely snowed under for a while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
