[urq] Sun visor clip

Wed Nov 13 01:35:49 PST 2013

Hi Pat
I didn't know that about the mk2 golf clip. I'd happily go that route for the sake of drilling a hole. If you have the pn i'll be most grateful.
All the best
Keith

I wonder if color might be an issue.  If they are not available, and there might be some interest in a group buy to get the costs down, I'm more than willing to be the "boots on the ground" with 034.
