Failing sunshade

Hi, just to ask, my O4 driver side sunshield just fell apart, there was no evidence of any kind of glue or fasteners to hold both parts, do anyone out there have the same problem.

Same thing here. Going to have it replaced this week. I think this is a fairly common issue with the 8's and most people have had them replaced without problems.

No need to worry but what a pain in the *** if you work all day and don't have time to take it in. I tried duct taping it to the roof (LOL) and that failed miserably.
