First step,off to the wreckers or new for 67- 72 visors and hooks.Pull the current visors you have for yours of the mounts,use a vise with wood blocks as the steel is soft.Twist back and forth pulling at the same time,they will come loose and slide off.

The inner post or hinge is 2 piece,so you can leave the end in the visor that clips into the hook.

Good idea to take some 400 grit to clean any rust on your old mounts, paint,then slide the later visors back on .You may have to trim the visor ends and re-upholster if you raise them up like I did.

Check for the hook location by.... looking at visor in up and visor in down position as well and then how it best lines up with your body lines on the roof.

Position the hooks where they best suite you,mark through the hole with a pencil and drill.Be aware there is a locating nib at the top of the hook,you will need to drill for that as well.
If you still need pics,let me know.

Cheers,
