Anyone else have issue with the visor not staying in the mounting bracket? Whenever I move the visor to block sun through the drivers window it pops out of the bracket.
Working on the 325 reminds me how much I LOVED my old Jeep Wrangler. A bus ate it.
Time to buy a new visor.

So is this a fairly common problem? Does the snap bracket just wear out?
I've found no wear on mine, at 11 years old.
That said, I'm more gentle than most, outside of acceleration and breaking.
If, in your shopping, you find an aftermarket visor with a horizontal extension that comes out toward the rear-view-mirror, I'll be interested in your review.
** EDIT ** In my past 5 bimmers, I've never seen the issue you report. Always wanted the horizontal extension though.

This is an 2012 with 82k. I'll probably go OEM through FCPeuro for the lifetime warranty.
I've seen it a handful of times.

Thanks. I may try some wire or O ring to give it a sphincteroplasty first.
I found the split in the plastic. I'll wire it tight when I get home.

Seems fixed for now. Used 2 zip ties and melted a lip to hold in place. The bracket had 3 cracks in it.
