Default sunvisor question hardtop vs t-top

is there any difference between the 2 other than the strap that is on the T-top ones? i'm looking on ebay for a replacement set and found a set out of a 93 camaro in charcoal that look mint, but i dont know if they have the straps or not (can't see the back side of them)

does anyone know if they are interrchangeable or is one set a different size? i'm not too concerned about the straps as i never use them and maybe i could just cut the ones off my existing visors and get someone to sew them onto the new set

here is a pic of the set i'm bidding on.. the color is listed as charcoal but think graphite and charcoal are interchangeable names for the dark gray 93-96 interior color

sunvisors on a ttop car are worthless unless ur a midget. Im throwing mine away when I redo my headliner. It only gets in the way. My sun visor dont have the strap and i have a ttop car.

I'm only getting new ones because mine are broken on the ends and the faboric on the top is faded and starting to come apart right where the board is broken and they look like crap. it has that floppy ears look.. i don't want to spend $190 for brand new ones but if i can snag these for under $100 thats not too bad

I found pics of a 95 with straps and i know a guy with a 94 hardtop who says his car had them and he removed them... but i've also found one or 2 93's with hardtops without straps.. is it possible that the 93's didn't have them? or does that just mean they were removed?

All of the fbodys I have owned have had straps, and I have owned a 96 and two 99s, one of which was a hardtop. Someone couldve cut them off though, my 96s were all stretched out..
