Clickable link: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156067740317(I know I've mentioned this before but I'll make no apology for saying it again, to post a link to an eBay item you should only copy the URL up to the question mark. If you copy and paste the whole thing, not only does the forum software not make the link clickable but there is a lot of encoded information in that gobblegook of numbers and letters that you probably don't want in a public forum. Note that this applies to almost any link with a ? in it).

If I search and select an item it just says “item” where the URL would normally reside, and I cannot see it anywhere else. Thanks.

I fit those brackets upside down because I prefer the visors upwards as deflectors, and they fit under the Easy Up without moving. ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2018/05/07/P1040529.jpg)

On the eBay website, there is a link to “Share” options up on the top right, next to “Add to Watchlist”. The iOS app has a share button at the top right.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Does one drill holes in the windscreen surround upper edge to fit these visors and would this affect fitting the hood to the studs along the top of the windscreen?
Thanks in anticipation

From a certain time, screen frames were delivered with four small metal threaded tubes which were welded to the frame. Being Morgan I have no idea when that started, but my 2005 has them. I believe that all Trads came with these stubs, even when visors were not ordered.

The threaded tubes welded to the frame give the impression they are blind holes, into which screws can be tightened against the frame. They are NOT blind holes. If you keep tightening, there will be a loud crack as the windscreen gives up. Don’t ask how I know these things

The parts book lists countersunk socket screws M5 x 25mm which secure sun visor via spacers. Given Chris's findings above I would double check length and presence of spacer when re-fitting.
