Replace Sun visor

Does anyone know how to replace the sun visor on the driver side? I have taken the old one off and was going to screw on the new one, but there are wires to work with and I am not sure what to do with them. There are some coming out of the roof that was connected to the old visor and wires on the new visor. Thanks for anyone that can help me out.

Can you unplug the wires from the new visor? If not, you'll have to splice.

it's a connector. did you buy the replacement used? Maybe the person who sold it to you just cut it off.. in which case you are going to have to splice.

Had to replace my visor also. My wires from visor connected to wires from car with plastic connector. Just need to unplug old and plug in new and then remount with two screws.

Owned 6 cars over 20 years, first car that I ever had a visor break and only a few years old.
