Default Replacement sunvisors?

Has anyone here ever seen replacement sunvisors for sale for a 2nd gen dodge? It doesn't have to be an OEM part or anything. The ones in my truck are pretty rough, I have found a few used ones on ebay, but they don't look a whole lot better than the ones I have. And I just got outbid on the one set I found that was in nice condition.

Was hoping to find some new ones, been searching the web quite a bit and haven't come across any yet. My truck is a 95, and although the sunvisors changed, the mounting for them was the same across all 2nd gen it looks like, so a model for any year will work.

Local upolstery shop should be able to re-cover them for you.

LMC truck sells them. But limited on color choices. For the price of them, gotta agree with Purple. Take them to a local shop to re-cover them.

You guys have the newer style ones (98 and up), which is what I am trying to find. The ones in my truck are like cardboard, the passenger side is all split apart and the driver side is very brittle, feels like it is just going to break in half if I touch it to hard.

So it's not really the fabric that is the problem, but thanks for the suggestion

Checked out that LMC Truck, thanks! They are only 90 bucks for the set, almost paid that much for the used ones on ebay, I think I might get those

Holy crap! Thats a rip-off! I got some visors out of a '98 in good condition for $5.

If I still have my originals, I can give them to 'ya. They need cleaning and only have the mirror for the passenger side, but have no rips or tears (if I remember correctly).
