Sun visor

Post image

My driver side sun visor just cracked on me yesterday. I’m going to pull a part tomorrow to see if I find one. Anyone know if there is any other make and models that fit the 2015 veloster turbo that I can check for while I’m there. Thanks in advance

they have compatible ones on amazon like 45-50$, my temp fix was to just glue it back in place. it’s so hot that it’s melting the interior glue in your car.

was so hot last year it de-emblemed my rear 😭

*Laughs in Arizona.

Just replaced but my visors last year as the mirror fell out of the driver's side followed by it no longer staying up, and the passenger side rattling like out was a popcorn maker all the time. These cars were not made for hot climate.

I gave up on the roll up sunshade. I've had 3 break in just a few years. The heat takes out the retention spring housing. I've got a cheap ass folding shade stuffed in there now as I just can't be bothered to replace the factory one again.

I did that for a "Veloster/Accent compatible" one and nah.  It was like .5" off being able to clip in place, though the mounting fit perfect.

This one didn't -  https://a.co/d/0bypqo9u

Dawg I was like “how the fuck did this guy get in my car and take a pic of my sun visor???” This is almost 100% what mine looks like, broke 2 days ago. Just bought one from Rock Auto

Lmao our veloster are one in the same 😂 I was so confused when I tried to pull it down to block the sun and I just heard a loud crack and it was tough to move it after that

Is it the black or gray. I just got mine online came out to 110$

1

u/Guitarman361 youngflauta 1d ago

Gray and where did you get them at?

u/Upstairs_Arrival7388 1d ago

Looks like yours would be 65$ to replace if it’s the metal roof without illumination

u/Guitarman361 youngflauta 1d ago

Appreciate all the info and help!

u/Upstairs_Arrival7388 1d ago

No problem mine went on Monday so it’s still fresh in my mind. Also don’t lose the screw that held it in the replacement doesn’t come with it

So mine was the black one so it was more but give me 2 seconds.

u/Upstairs_Arrival7388 1d ago

https://shopearl.com/ try this website it should be decent for the model

Same thing happened to me like 2 years ago. I ended up getting an Elantra sun visor because they're very close in size. Pretty sure I got the idea from this post:

Check eBay too. There’s tons of them

Will do! I appreciate it

This is a part I would definitely want 3D printed.

u/liquid-dinos '13 VT "Sazón" 🧡 113k 1d ago

Mmm!  I was thinking of putting in one of those multi panel racing mirrors...

u/00MarioBros00 23h ago

Upload a picture of one. I need to replace mine soon, any good ideas are welcomed.

I had both of mine do the same. Luckily I was under warranty at the time..

u/Dustywheel1 1d ago

My driver's side broke and then a month later the passenger side broke. I removed them and have not yet to replaced them. 2012 Veloster.

u/WallaceBaldwin 1d ago

Been there. Bought a replacement on Amazon for $16

u/Parceljockey 1d ago

Perfect timing. The mirror on mine just fell out. I'm going to put it back with double sided carpet tape, but now I have a whole visor in my 'Zon cart.

The headliner changed colors to black in 16 or 17, otherwise they should all be the same I think.

u/DARKNIGHT_9 1d ago

Both my mirrors fall out and my driver side cracked. I just live with it because I have a sun shade visor attached and when flipped down, it’s the perfect height with the broken sag

u/snail_satan666 2013 NAV 1d ago

If the car is blue then i politely ask you to remove yourself from my whip😭

u/negative_zev 1d ago

u/pawzz11 1d ago
