Why Choose This Sun Visor
- Direct fit for Peugeot 308 / 3008 / 5008 models listed below.

- Built-in mirror to replace worn or damaged visors without additional modification.
- Cost-effective alternative to replacing the complete headliner or costly OEM parts.
Function And Typical Failures
The sun visor’s primary function is to block direct sunlight and reduce glare for the driver, improving visibility and comfort. Common failure modes include worn or loose hinge pivots, broken mounting clips, detached upholstery or foam, and degraded fabric or plastic from UV exposure and frequent use. Damage often appears as sagging, rattles, broken pivot arms, or a cracked mirror housing.
Replacement Procedure (Overview)
Replacement is straightforward for a trained mechanic or competent DIYer with basic tools. Typical steps:
- Park the vehicle on level ground and disconnect the negative battery terminal if the visor has illuminated components (see note).
- Fold the visor to access mounting screws and trim covers, remove any caps, and unscrew the retaining fasteners.
- Carefully unclip the visor from the pivot and remove it from the headliner mounting bracket. If the visor includes an illuminated mirror, disconnect the wiring connector before full removal.
- Fit the new visor by reversing the procedure: position, connect any wiring, secure the pivot and screws, replace trim covers, and check operation and fitment.
- Verify there are no rattles and that the visor locks into each position smoothly.
Estimated replacement time: 15–30 minutes depending on vehicle trim and whether electrical connectors are present.
Installation Recommendations
- Use the correct size screwdriver or Torx bit to avoid stripping fasteners.
- If the visor has an electrical connector, always disconnect the battery before work and reconnect it after completing installation.
- Inspect the mounting bracket and surrounding headliner for damage; replace any broken clips or torn fabric to prevent premature failure of the new visor.
- Tighten fasteners snugly but avoid over-torquing plastic threads.
