    Question- are the pickup and closed car visor brackets the same? I think mine may have been inadvertently thrown out....they were rotted junk but I could have used the frames, dammit.
    My online sleuthing has not came up with a replacement for cars, but plenty for trucks. My thoughts are if the 3 screw holes have the same layout I can use them, just not sure. Anyone know??

    I'm talking about the interior sun visors. I agree the exterior visor looks cheezy.

    Maybe see if someone can make a template and email it to you? My '47 was missing it's sunvisors, I found a pair of chrome arms at a swap meet and took a chance on them, they fit fine. I'm sure they aren't all the same across all cars though.

    So are you saying all these have the same screw layout? Sorry I just don't understand what you're saying here.

    I am just trying to find our which brackets/rods I could use to have interior sun visors. I'm not sure why but I cannot find any for a 41-48 closed car. Lots for trucks....if the screw layout is the same I could make them work. I see it's a 3 screw triangle layout just like the car, but not sure if the hole would match up.

    OR....I would be OK using any others just need to know what will fit.
