stator Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) What's the 'electric' part of an electric sun visor?I see many of the sun visor's on eBay have an electrical connector:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sun-visor-VW-Golf-IV-Volkswagen-golf-4-98-03-O-S-F-Electrical-3B0857552R-/261755114434?hash=item3cf1d213c2I know these ar efor Golfs, but what on earth is the electric part for?

Silver! Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 In my 9n3 Polo, when I slide the mirror cover back, the light aboth the visor comes on....so I can make myself pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupogtiboy Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Lupos don't have the light in them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stator Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yes but I can't spot a light on the Golf ones on eBay either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 It's in the roof lining. Not the visor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stator Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Ah ok, thanksNot sure why the old Golf and Polo ones have an electrical connector in the visor itself. It clearly feeds into the visor, but I can't see a light anyway on the photos.Same thing on a Passat:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Passat-B6-2005-2010-Passenger-Side-Front-Sun-Visor-with-Clip-Ref-332739-/171896815258?hash=item2805d93e9a Edited September 8, 2015 by stator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 It's the switch in\ out. The light as posted above comes on when the visor is down and the cover is slid back. Close the slider or put the visor up and the light goes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
