What do you for nuts that hold on Sunvisors
I was taking my visors off and 3 of the 4 nuts came loose inside windshield frame. What can I do and/or what have you guys done? Thanks for any help, Randy

Re: What do you for nuts that hold on Sunvisors
you will have to drill the old screw heads out,then put threaded inserts back in..here is the tool to put them in with..
northern sells the inserts also. These work well where a nut cannot be put in place. roof racks..ect..Handy to have one of these.. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...8963_200308963 |

i think the op said the nuts on the inside are also spinning now. Drilling in inserts won't stop the nuts from spinning.

I have the same problem and when I asked about it I was told that I would need to cut into the top and replace the nuts. Hopefully someone will tell us differently here.

Re: What do you for nuts that hold on Sunvisors
This happened to the bolts for the top on mine. I'm not 100% sure you can access the visor nuts the way i fixed mine but here's what i did.
First I cut or ground the head of the bolt off. Then I fished the old nut out through the hole where the door seal goes with a combination of air pressure and a wire. To install a new nut i drilled two 3/16'ish holes on either side of the bolt hole then tack welded some mechanic wire to a nut and pushed it in through the door seal hole. Once you get it to the hole use a long bolt to thread in the nut and hold it out tight and weld rosette's using the 3/16 holes you drilled. I wish i had some pics for you!
