Title: rechrome internal visor brackets Post by: GMHwagoon on April 05, 2015, 05:59:10 PM anyone got an idea on getting the chrome done on the internal sun visor brackets l have a heap of fb ek visors but they seem to be different to fc you can remove fb ek brackets with the screw on the side but fc seem to be one piece rod and all do you have to remove the whole rod to have it chromed thanks greg Title: Re: rechrome internal visor brackets Post by: FCRB26 on April 05, 2015, 06:34:54 PM I pulled mine apart just grind the weld off the round rod watch you do not lose the spring.
you will need to weld it back together when you have rechromed. highlly advise tigging it so you dont get spatter on the new chrome. Title: Re: rechrome internal visor brackets Post by: fcwrangler on April 05, 2015, 06:44:03 PM There are some on eBay at the moment including the screws.

they are fb ek brackets on ebay when l looked at mine the rod that runs into the visor itself has a right angle bent at the bracket end which then runs through the chrome bracket unlike the fb ek ones there no screw to take it apart the ones on ebay look to be fb ek maybe ken could shed some light on what model the brackets were changed thanks greg Title: Re: rechrome internal visor brackets Post by: GMHwagoon on April 05, 2015, 06:56:15 PM thanks pete
that looks like what l am going to have to do grind off then weld up again Title: Re: rechrome internal visor brackets Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on April 06, 2015, 04:27:40 PM They generally don't need re-chroming, I have found they all come up good after a quick buff on the bench grinder with a polishing mop.
