Nice visors.
I had no luck pulling the visors from a pair of Med. Blue ones that came off a '72 K/20. I wanted to swap them for the black visors on my '71 K/1500 Jimmy. The Jimmy has been painted Maui Blue [bright blue metallic] by a PO. I like the color change and wanted to match interior items. The Jimmy was originally Copper/Bronze with a black interior.
Blazer [and Jimmy] visors are slightly different from the standard truck type. They have different mounts. You would think that the ''flag'' part would just slide off the wire support but I could get neither set loose. So no interchange.
So my Orange '68 Stepside has blue visors, and my blue '71 GMC Jimmy still has its OEM black visors.
There are worse things to worry about.
