Abstract

A sun visor (6) has a catch (12) for engagement with, and disengagement from, a clip (13) on a center bracket (14). The catch includes a pin (40) received within a cylindrical roller sleeve (41). The ends of the pin are retained in resilient cradles (42,50) mounted to a visor core half (23), and held securely therein by resilient tabs (43,55) mounted to another visor core half (20). The pin is prevented from moving laterally by a resilient tab (51).
