Where do these go?🤔

I bought these from ILT to add a touch of "nostalgia" to my '72 Supreme. According to their website, the white card goes in the glove box, and the red card is a "sun visor sleeve". Does it actually go on the visor?

My DaD bought my 72 supreme new May 27 1972, its a March build, , I do remember the sleeve over the visor, but I have never seen the white card with the belt storage, Did not know these were being reproduced,
I bought it off of Him in August 77, as he wanted a new 77 Supreme!

Im guessing it faced towards the passenger? And how was it attached?

Dave, the red seat belt warning is actually a sleeve that slides over the passenger side sun visor. You might find it's a little snug with the vanity mirror. I have one of these in my car - bought it ages ago. Never seen the white one though.

Thanks Allan..does it go over the mirror?...seems like that's the only option, which means it would cover the mirror, correct?

Is it possible that the red sleeve was not meant to be permanently attached to the visor but rather was meant to be removed by the new owner when he took possession of the car? (That's why it's a slide-on rather than a sticker?) I don't think the owner needed to be reminded every time he got in the car that the car has a seat belt warning system. But he needed to be reminded the FIRST time he got in. Then he removed the sleeve and discarded it (or threw it in the glovebox or whatever).

So this means that the OP, if he wants his new red sticker that he just bought to be completely authentic, he should read it and then throw it in the trash can?
