Thanks in advance

You can still buy the original type new from the Mini specialists. I think you might struggle to get something that isn't too big from another car.

I liked one I saw once that was a transparent but coloured plastic, sort of like putting on sun glasses I suppose.  no reduced visibility but reduced glare

 

I think it was just a home-made thing though I don't remember seeing that as a kit anywhere on sale but I may be wrong.  I think that might end up being the way I go with mine 

 

best sunvisor setup I ever had was in a Civic, they put a tiny little one in the middle for those times when the sun comes in right in the middle and you can't block it, ingenious

apparently you can buy them

but again probably easy enough to make, use the original fixings maybe

 

probably the only thing is getting a nice clean cut around the edges, the ones you buy are most likely machine or laser cut

tinted ones here too, though rather more expensive, especially with tax on top when imported...

Classic mini japan sell a set which bolt straight on, I think they are around £100.00, I would be tempted to have a crack myself, and probably will.
