...and it wasn't as easy as it looked! I pre-ordered the 2013 visor so it was at the dealer when I went for my software recall/upgrade yesterday (took about a week to show up). What should have taken 2 minutes took me over an hour because the plastic mounts were DIFFERENT; of course, I couldn't tell that until I removed the current one and noticed the BACK side of the plastic mount (the part that goes into the roof) was different! Why do they have to change such a simple thing? Anyway, I swapped the plastic pieces on the 2013/2011 visors so I could insert/screw the 2013 visor back into my 2011 Leaf. Yes, the plastic is "chewed up" because it was a b*tch to get them off (I'm no mechanic, so if you can figure out a better way to remove them and keep the pivot tighter, more power to you).
Bottom line: I got the extender I wanted, looks like it was always part of the car and--best of all--I already used it this morning on the way to work (I always have sun coming in my driver's window going BOTH to/from work)!
