Default Why are grey sunvisors so hard to find, and when you do someone wants too much $$$?

I'm looking for a set of grey sunvisors for my 98' SS and it seems everytime I find a nice set, the person wants an arm and a leg for them. WHY?????

Are these something that commonly rot, get damaged or fall apart? My car was missing the passengerside when I bought it for some reason or another. The driversside is ok except for the cracked vanity mirror.

I found them "brand-new" for a whopping $170

Anyway, has anyone used/made another year/make/model work? There has got to be a more affordable alternative. I wear sunglasses 99.99% of the time, so I'm not in desparate need of them. I would just like to have them to complete the interior.

Does anyone have any suggestions or tried something else? Man, if I could sew, I would fab up my own set and possibly make a little $$$ while at it

Dang, I had a set out of my '95 'bird that I'd have basically given to you if they were the right color. Too bad I tossed them in the trash while gutting the car.

you can always find a set of any color and take them to an upolstrey shop to recover both of them
