A sun visor attachment for mounting a sun visor is disclosed. The sun visor attachment enables a sun visor assembly to be attached out of a trajectory of an overhead airbag. A sun visor assembly can be rigidly attached either on the overhead airbag module housing containing mounting brackets rearward of the deployment door, or it can be rigidly attached to a resilient substrate affixed between a headliner and the overhead airbag module behind the airbag outlet.
