Title: Sun visors
Post by cossieguy on Jul 19^th, 2006, 8:32pm

I've got illuminated sun visors fitted to my mondeo which i believe came off an old granada question is will they go on my ultima? I know the passenger side has power to it cause the present one is lit(But temperemental and flimsy) but how about the drivers side does any one know if the cabling is already run in or will i need to run a feed to it? Why didn't the scorpio carry over the old visors as they're much better looking and better quality?

They are the same except the centre one is no longer fitted. As you said the passengers one is not very good quality

believe it or not but the wiring is not in place!! The wiring for the passenger side illuminated mirror is soldered into the wiring loom above the drivers door!

I actually fitted visors from a Ford Focus. Same shape and all that needed doing was to remove the fixing arms and replace with the Scorpio ones. Not illuminated but they both hav a mirror behind a sliding door. A bit more up to date!

Well i'll have to run a feed from the centre courtesy light which is what i did on my v6 mondie shouldn't be too difficult. Anyone think of any problems/advice for doing this as the scorps electrics are a little more involved.
