Just purchased '94 Corolla for daughter's first car

I just purchased a 1994 Corolla DX for my daughter's first car. It was a one-owner, an older couple who had all dealer maintained records. Excellent shape with 74,000 miles, always garaged, and it was stored during the winter months -- so it's rust free. The bonus is it's Super Red with a spoiler and a lot of dealer extras. It's a great first car.

Everything in the car's interior is in perfect shape. It really looks like new. Except for those flimsy visors. They're a mess. Does anyone know where I can purchase some new visors for this model? I've done some searching on the internet with no luck. I know you can get them from the junk yard, but I'd have to guess they couldn't be much better. This car is in perfect shape, and was always garaged. I've always hated Toyota visors -- from my very first car (1972 Corolla).

Visors aside, nobody makes a better car than Toyota. I've owned many through the years. And I'm glad this will be my daughter's first car. Of course, she probably won't appreciate the value of Toyota reliability as much as I will.

Thanks for the help!

Auto upholstery shops also make visors. They can re-do your old ones. Unless you tell them to strictly follow the pattern of the old visors, a shop may construct a larger visor. Make sure they don't do something that makes the visor bump into the rear view mirror.

I went to 1sttoyotaparts.com and it shows the visors as being for the station wagon. Are they different for the sedan?

I think it is the same, but I will give them a call to make sure.

Hey, even if she doesn't appreciate the value of a Toyota. There's so many things out there for a 94 Corolla. So if she doesn't like how it looks, it's pretty cheap to change things on it.
