Replaced Alcantara Sun Visors (no label)

Very happy to have replaced my sun visors with the Euro version which does not have the airbag warning labels.

Damn, I wish my car came with the alcantara headliner. Will probably get it reupholstered at some point.

Thanks! I purchased them from IND Distribution:
BMW F95 X5M European Sun Visor Set
SKU: 51168079647

They fit the G05 as well.

That looks quite nice. I assume the swing pivot mechanics are the same as stock? That is, as weirdly misaligned, flappy, and weak as stock? I would definitely change them to fix that ...

Added Alcantara Euro Visors to my 2025 G05 LCI. Love the cleaner look.

Why not just have your factory visors reupholstered vs spending $800 for a new set? Lol.

Because the convenience and time savings of clicking a few buttons to order on line and spending 10 minutes making the swap is worth more to me than any $ savings I would get and time investment I would make getting the OEM ones reupholstered.

Have the option of reinstalling the OEM ones and sell the warning-free ones down the road when I eventually get rid of the car.

Looks great!

Too steep for my pockets for what the mod is.

I just followed in others footsteps and used rubbing alcohol, use a rag and soak into the labels and peel them right off. Did leave a very minor outline but not enough to notice. For me it’s a must do mod but with all the other ones I’ve done it’s not one I’d shell out $800 given the cheap $7 bottle of rubbing alcohol option. Does look great and def worth doing whichever option you go with.
