got any drawings of what they would look like? are they real industrial or do they approximate the plastic clips? What would the cost be? If the cost was in line and they don't look too machine like I would be interested in some.

since these seem like a replacement for broken/missing visor clips and not an "upgrade" I have to ask this question:

would the hardware for installation be included?... my old 924 is completely missing the visor clips and the hardware (screws) that hold them in place. I guess it would be fairly easy to find this hardware....JUST CURIOUS

Okay, so this is for metal clips right? And are there any differences in them through the years?

Ditto, if the price is right, $30 a pair or lower would be my vote.

$30? Are we talking about the clips that the sunvisor snaps into when it is in front of the driver and not off to the side? That are located next to the dome light?

For ones machined out of aluminum? Hell yes, I'll never have to worry about them again. BTW, someone on e-bay sells the platic ones for $7 each plus S&H. Figure $16 - $18 for a pair of new plastic ones or aluminum ones I'll go for the aluminum.

Yeah, you're right. Although the first set lasted me for sixteen years, so it's not like they break all the time. Anyway, let's let the seller come up with the price.
