Ok, so I just installed a black vinyl headliner and it looks great. Now I want to rewrap my visors in the same black vinyl but I can't seem to get them apart. Does anyone have any tricks or tips on opening up the visors?! Thanks!

No one? 68 views and no one knows how to open the visors? Damn! Lol!!!
LoL. Sorry bro, I don't have the answer for you. I know its been done. Grab a spare pair at the junkyard and cut'em up. I'm sure theres a way. Maybe pop off the mirror first, or cut the seam on the fabric.
That's exactly what I would do but the problem is there are no junk yards anywhere near me that have any 8G Galants. So I don't have access to a spare set. Really wish I did.Quote:

they are melted together, its a real pain in the ass to get them apart.
i gave up and am going to just spray them black.
Sounds good. Please do that!Quote:

I think I have a way to open them up if they are melted together but I absolutely want to test it out on a pair of spare visors first.Quote:

they wont come apart you have to wedge the material into the seam along the outside and split and tuck in the clip area. its a tight fit but it will work.
This is definitely a tutorial worthy subject. I redid my headliner, doors, and carpets to a different color last year and have yet to put visors in since they don't match.
at least u guys got that far i spray painted my leather cuz i couldnt figure out how to wrap it and after i failed wit the doors no way im touchin my headliner so it will be falling down ontop on me smh spray paint ftw
They should be just pressed together. I don't think the plastic is sonic welded together cuz of the upholstery
