Since the announcement last Saturday, my factory fitted leather passenger sun visor has taken to drooping from its regular erect position to a sad shadow of its former self.
Is this psychological or age related (Bertie is only six)?
Anybody suggest how to fix?

Find a diamond shape blue pill and put it into any accessible opening. Should do the trick. If not try inserting a cocktail stick into the hinge bit. Mine droop when going over a cattle grid!

Sun visors? Sun Visors? Extra weight and they destroy the aerodynamics!  Bud 4/4 - Stanley

Yes, I have noticed the droop increases when accompanied by the rev hang feature.
I must try and find out what the droop feature cost as a factory extra. Presumably it was too expensive to have the drivers side droop feature as well although perhaps Morgan will retro-droop for a couple of £K?

Maybe you need to keep the vibration high to stop the droop. Minimum 4k rpm?

Anybody suggest how to fix? Unbolt the end fittings from the 'screen, pull out the ends and carefully squish the sort of tube part in the visor, refit & Robert's your uncle

‘Carefully squish’.
Hmmm, I will dig out my Squish o’Matic and hook it up to my Carefullometer then.
Many thanks.
