I don't know if they are the same but GB Classic Trim offer complete sun visors for Jaguar cars that look similar. I would be very surprised if those on the 406 are unique. Worth asking if anyone can confirm if they changed from 406 to 411. If so try messaging Graeme Payne just in case he has any.

Did you check with Graeme?

Not sure, but it may be that 406 sun visors are similar or the same as 407 through early 411. Worth checking. I know they are different to 405.

managed to get some jaguar units which have the same hinged mounting but were a little short to the centre hook

so modified them and re-trimmed them, not concours but functional
