Default V40 Floppy sun visor

The driver's side sun visor on my V40 1997 model has lost its spring and flops down just in my eye-line.
Can anybody suggest how I can fix this?
thanks

Lower your seat?
Failing that tape it to the headlining
Or, trip to the breakers or a trawl through Ebay. Salvo is a name which appears on here quite regularly, you could try them.

Breakers yard is the best bet and cheapest - you can't bodge the flange to give more resistance....

Failing that as said before tape it up...
