Side Window Visors

Anyone remember those Stainless Steel Stamped visors that JC Whitney and K-Mart used to sell for P/Ups. They did not cost too much and added a nice touch of shine to the top of the door,

Oh, yah, they also let you open the window a little on rainy days.

Anyone know of a source for them these days? J C Whitney only carries the plastic "Vent Shades" type. K-Mart, well they got out of the Auto parts businss some time ago. Remember when you could actually go into K-Mart and buy the parts to do a complete tune up?

Re: Side Window Visors

some of the non-board member vendors sell those like LMC (Loosers Made Cheaply), but I would check with some of the board guys (GMC Paul comes to mind). I bet he could get you some..

LMC Catalog is good for the exploded diagrams though =)

Re: Side Window Visors

I ordered a catalog from LMC the other day. It seems to be a good resource for "what fits what" and exploded views.
Just checked their website and there they are on Page 75. Exactly what I was looking for, (a bit higher in price than I was expecting though)

I saw the comment from lbpd719 regarding LMC above. Who do all y'all like for OEM Replica parts? Who has quality and fair pricing?

If this has been posted before please just send me to the link.

Close to the same price as LMC, but I like their service/quality 100X more.

Not LMC for repops. I just bought a gas tank from them for $129.00 plus approx $25.00 ahipping. Only 3 of the 8 bolt holes lined up and I had to ship it back. Shipping back was $38 so I lost $63 and a lot fo time. Just my .02 cents.
