Okay, I'm going to need some help on this one...

I never thought it would be this hard to find a used part.

I've been on the hunt for a whole driver's side visor (whole assembly) for my wife's 2003 Cavalier (4dr).

You'd think it would be an easy task....not so much. Running into issues when hitting the yards:

#1- Many of the Cavs I've hit already have no visors...I 'm guessing this is a common issue. Thanks, GM

#2- If one has one, it's pretty much destroyed.

Can get one from the dealership for the tidy sum of 161 bucks...worth almost as much as the car at this point.

I've called upon my J body people, with no success so far.

Catch is it has to be from a 03-05 Cav...I'm quite anal about that.

I'm hoping you guys might be able to check your local yards for one....can't believe how hard this is for a 5-15 buck part!

What is wrong with your current visor, uncle dave?

[daves87rs]

Wife broke it while turning it....broke it right at the plastiic mount. Crazy...

I'll check next time I go to the Columbus pick and pull....

Can you swap mounts? I'm sure its easier to find a decent mount and swap the actual visor.

Nope, it's all connected together....

What color? There are a few on eBay.

Have you tried gmpartsdirect? I looked up one for a 2005 and it's listed for $32.21, plus shipping.

Good luck on the new 1 Dave

Thanks! I'm thinking of giving Josh's idea a try....It does look like a base mirror to me.....
