The leather does not come into contact with the two bars that are screwed to the w/screen frame.

I am tempted with bashing the tube viking (with the bars in place) to create some pressure points but not if this does not work and makes them irreparable by the factory - although maybe just a new frame is the answer. Mine are so bad that if you hold the visor vertically, the bars just drop out! eek

Tinning with solder might work, I'll have to find summat to practice on.......
