I have the replicas in my '84 and the sunvisor does pop out of them once in
a while.
They are much nicer than any used (not discolored) and come with the built
in steel washers like originals.

I'm going through this right now. Even after modification, the VW part is
NOT a perfect replacement. The footprint is smaller, so you'll see an
imprint of the original in the headliner around the circumference (may not
bother you). The bigger problem is that this part is also NLA new. There are
some NOS on eBay, usually black. Used are there too, but still tough to find
in beige.

Reports on the replicas out of the UK are a little mixed. They're a better
aesthetic match, but they don't hold the visor quite as securely as stock.
My visors are tight enough not to really need a clip to stay in place. The
replicas are pricey, but anyone who thinks they have a successful business
model that includes selling them cheaper is certainly free to try.
