Thanks a lot for the video. I did exactly as you have shown and got my driver’s side visor fixed. Almost every repair place including my dealer , recommended changing the whole thing. It would have cost me $100-$200, but ended up being just $1.24 by doing it myself. I used a smaller size clamping hose, had to shave off a little plastic on the inside of the bracket.
Thanks again.
I actually did the same thing as you did even before I saw this video. I gave up on it when I can’t seem to maneuver the visor bracket when the clamps are in, so I used a hose clip (you gotta press to open) which worked for a few good months. Now its falling off again and I got to this video because I about to give up and but a new visor. Thanks, I will try it again and probably do the same thing you did putting the clamp on the outer side. Its the driver side visor that’s giving me the problem.
I bought the brackets at Advance Auto Parts. These are hose clamps by Ideal model 5203v with clamping range of 5/16 inches to 7/8 inches. If you find smaller ones it might be easier.

This video was VERY HELPFUL. Thank you for doing this. Just saved me at least $50 for the dealership to “look” at it. The fixed it for me originally for free in the first year I had the car…I also did the other side as preventative maintenance….figured I was in there might as well get it done.
Please do more vidz of any other Quest items you tackle! We are out there and appreciate your work 🙂

Great and thanks for the shaving tip! For future reference where did you get the clamp and if you have it the name/model #.
Thanks!

Most clips on YouTube about fixing and repairing are not detailed enough. Yours is clear and detailed. Thank you.
Thank you so much. I fixed mine this past weekend and it worked perfectly.
Thanks! I’m going to fix mine now, thanks to you!
You are not alone!
🙂
