Great - i hate it when these things break...
 
Does anyone know how to fix the little clip that holds the free end of the sun visor in place? Mine snapped off yesterday and it is already a pain in the neck. Is it a replaceable part? it is one the '95 E300D.

126 810 00 12 plus a 4 digit code depending on the colour. Looks like $13 each.
Make sure that you remove the fuse before replacing as it is very easy for it to spin and short out.
I usually pick up a few spares at the wrecker as they are used in W123, 124, 126 and 201 cars so lots around. The cover for the screw however rarely survives. Never been charged for one yet.

Thanks! I think I will look for one from a bone yard. $42 for a pair of OEM ones is a bit steep. maybe I'll move the passenger side one over to the driver side until I find one in a bone yard.

What is the colour?
I've got a couple of black that you can have for the price of shipping (from Canada).

I have gray or oyster which ever name mb gave that color. I moved the passenger one over and then put the broken drivers side on the passenger side. The little doors are very fragile as you said so they are now both with out screw cover doors. No big deal. I will look into finding a pair over here but thanks very much for the offer!

Ton's available on eBay. I prefer used OEM MBZ over the cheap knock-offs from the Far East.
