1950 olds 88 exterior sun visor question

hi all, I don't know much about exterior sun visor/shade and wanted to know if, does it need to be a one piece visor or can I use the kind with two pieces? would anyone know what size of visor is correct for a 50 olds 88?

Hi
I did some measurement on my car (-53 hardtop) and ended up buying a used two pieces sun visor, believe it was marked Olds 50-53.
Back home after a couple of months sea freight I discover it was about a good inch to wide…
Since it was a two piece I was able narrow it but with the hazel of shorten trims an so on.
I believe the side brackets are a molded/chromed piece that will be hard to find and mine was missing but I made my own in stainless that ended up OK.

I read somewhere that a 50 chevy is the same as the Olds (check on this because I'm going on memory) and might give you a better chance to find one....Tedd
