DIY Broken car visor fix for less than $1 and in under 2 minutes
My 2009 Hyundai Elantra has a poor design flaw and both driver and passenger sun shade visors have broken. They kept falling down and wouldn't stay put, so I first tried super gluing it back together, but nothing worked until I tried using a zip tie. Using a simple zip tie you can easily fix it. The zip tie I used was a little short but it still worked.

    Yeah but can you unclip it and move it into the side position?

    • @AnneXXL
      @AnneXXL Před 8 měsíci

      Just did this on my broken Subaru shield- you can move it over, but it’s loose on the side. I could put some Velcro maybe to have it stick in that position.

    Stupid fix...I fixed mine in a much simpler and quicker and more efficient way plus also visually pleasing way. Your fix looks like shit with the tie wraps. What I did is I slid the visor of the rod on which it is mounted and then slipped a piece of surgical tubing over the plastic part of the rod and slipped the visor back onto the rod and over the surgical tubing and VOILA! no more sagging visor...the perfect fix...like new in all ways and even better. If you don't have surgical tubing use a latex household glove and cut of one of the fingers and slip that over the rod instead...works just as well....

  • @TheSandraUniverse

    Worked perfectly on my 2008 Elantra ! Only had one zip tie to work with, so it was a little hard to latch the ends together since one zip tie is short. Kept trying for like an hour or so, but finally, success! Some temporary detachment of visor (with the wire still on) & some sliding & forcing & tadah! Locked! This was definitely a wallet saver, so I appreciate this video. Definitely have someone help you out if you’re working with only one zip tie. If not, make sure you have a long zip tie or use two, as mentioned by one commenter on here. To Joe: How are your visors with the zip ties doing these days? Are the zip ties still holding up? Thank you once again for your video

    I use zip ties all the time but this application would never have occurred to me! After two "fixes" that lasted maybe a year each, I was searching for another idea and this is great. Headed out to do it now! As someone else mentioned, I think I'm going to link 2 ties together to make it easier

  • @machine7767

    Great tip on using a razor blade All other videos say just pull hard and that wasn't working for me. Tried a small screwdriver and that didn't work but a razor blade did the trick.
