Replacing lighted sun visor

[GrandV6]

Replacing vanity light sun visor (and driver as well). Are they simple to swap out? Assume there is some kind of wire disconnect under the head liner. Any insight would be appreciated.

What are you replacing it with? The lighted passenger sun visors are very very sought after...especially for the T top cars.
Anyway...there is an orange wire ( i believe) with a black connector that will be up in the headliner. Just fish it out and disconnect it.

My wire actually comes thru the frame ( T Top car) of the hole where the sunvisor attaches to. If you look at a sunvisor that has been removed the wire goes thru the hinge ( metal piece. ) . I 2nd that quote on t top sunvisors.

Are the t-top car lighted visors different than the hardtop/moonroof car lighted visors?

Yes. The hinge is different. Like OP said...the wire actually comes thru the hinge. The hinges are different with or without the lighted option. T top visors are very hard to find and the lighted are impossible.

Look at the mounting bracket of the sun visor..........the hardtop sun visor bracket is rounded,( i.e. curved), the T-Top sun visor bracket is flat......that's the difference.

I know this is an old thread, but does anyone know the secret for removing the electrical connector? I need to replace the bracket on mine as the end that keeps the spring compressed has expired. Once that is off, how does the rest of the bracket slide out from the sun visor? Thanks!
