Thank you! My wife was driving me nuts with this and I don't want to pay $185 so I followed your video instructions and it worked.

Thank you for the video. If anyone else thinking of trying this fix, two things I noticed when I did it: 1) for the cover that hides the mounting screws, if you think of it as a D shape, the two side tabs are right beside the points, and 2) I used a teaspoon to pry open the two halves of the visor

Followed your instructions and came up beautiful. Sunvisor was hanging down and wouldn't go back up. Was so annoying. Thank you service.

Great job! We followed your directions and we had the same piece broken. Ours was in 2 pieces so we Gorilla glued those back together and waited 24 hrs. before continuing the fix. Zip ties worked great. We reinstalled the visor and crossed our fingers. Hopefully it will hold for a long time. The toughest part was getting the cover off to get to the screws. Even though we were careful we still ended up breaking the cover in 2 places. Gorilla glued them back on and waited 24 hrs before reinstalling. The cover snapped back in place. Thank you for posting this video.

After watching your video and seeing what mine might look like on the inside (2013 Murano), I simply drilled a hole through that area and secured with a nut, bolt and a couple of washers. Works perfectly.

Hello Robert, just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate this video on the Nissan visor repair. My Nissan had the EXACT issue with almost the exact break in the clip. After watching your video I was able to duplicate the repair with the zip ties. You saved me a ton of money and I'm so grateful for your time you spent posting this video. Take care and thanks again!!

Robert - that was an awesome video - you have saved us over $500 Australian dollars for new ones or a trip to the wreckers,! The video shows exactly what we found and the cable ties went in just as shown. Love the tips on being patient and easing the visors open - very useful. Really appreciate the time you took to make video.

Robert - thanks for posting; much appreciated. I had the analogous problem on a Nissan Murano. Due to its slightly different design, I had to use 4 small zip ties (instead of 2 'regular' ones that you used), and I had to rip stitches and resew the fabric back around the visor. I chuckled at your comment at 7:02 about the 'poor design' with respect to the wiring. Thanks again - cheers,

Saw this fix for the '13 Pathfinder. Mine has the same problem and is a '15 and just slightly different than the '13, but still close. So, since the dealer wants $217 for a new one, I tried your method. Worked like a charm. A little bit off since the bracket didn't want to fit exactly flat, so the visor dosen't work perfectly every time but close to perfect. Thanks so much for posting this video!

Thanks, Robert! I just used your technique to fix my wife's pathfinder. There was 5 broken pieces of plastic inside. It broke such that the mechanism was on the same side as the vanity mirror. So I had to cut the plastic ring holding the mechanism in place so I could move it, carefully, to the other side so I could zip tie it up. Works well now. Thanks!!!

Great informative video. Thank you. After taking mine apart successfully I found the plastic around the metal clip you zip-tied was completely broken. Found a new one on an online auction site for one hundred dollars buy now. I appreciate the advice. Ps I laughed at your video as I am amazed at your ingenuity to fix this but hear the Smoke detector chirping in the background. I hope you had time to fix that too!

Thank YOU! This worked great and my wife’s visor works great now. Hardest part was removing the screw head cover - mine broke into two pieces but I was able to tack them back in place with a little epoxy. Too bad Nissan didn’t think to make the clip mechanism from the same material as this cover :)
