Bill,
The TR6 ones have a metal insert that runs the length of the visor. Are you
sure it's not there and covered by the foam? Try and feel for it or maybe
check with a magnet.

Subject: RE: [TR] Sun vistor install help please
Thanks to everyone for the replies! Here's the one remaining dillema.
The new sun vistors have holes only in the vinyl covering. The foam appears
to be a solid piece without a hole through it for the bar. I presume I can
just push something with a small diameter through the foam (I'm thinking a
coat hanger), and then push the rod through, yes?
Thanks as always!

If the 250 visors are the same as the TR6, it's just a push on fit.
Also, I found that the easiest way to keep the visor from flopping down
was to put a very slight bend in the rod before sliding the visor over
the rod.
