Very simple solution that has held my visors in place for 12 years now. This 
is easiest to do with the visors off of the car. Pull the visor off of the 
rod and bend the rod every so slightly.........just an itsy bitsy teeny bend 
will hold them in place. Some guys try crimping the metal channel in the 
visor but the rod bend is easier and works great.
