Exclamation 2011 C300 issues. Help needed!

Hi Ya'll, I've run into a couple of issues with my c300. was wondering if any of you could suggest how to deal with them:

1. I accidentally yanked off the sun visor(driver side) while trying to change its direction. The good news is that it doesn't look like the clip is broken. The Bad news, i can't find anything on how to put it back. Any one who has done this before ? How do i fix it.

2. My steering wheel squeaks sometimes and its just plain annoying. Any ideas how this can be handled ?

3. I've got some big holes in the lower mesh of my front bumper. Anyone in Atlanta who could suggest where to take the car to get this fixed ? I'd rather avoid the dealership if possible. How much could it cost to get this fixed?

Thanks everyone!

First sign up for this https://epc.startekinfo.com and you can see how things go back together. It schmetics and part number it is very useful.

The lower grill you can either replace it you can do a search on this site and will find the How To, or you can buy a grill from these guys http://www.racemeshgrilles.com/

I put one of these on my car have not looked back and it is an easy solution, not cheap but you never have to worry.

As for the steering wheel look on the site on how to remove your steering wheel and than you could probably give it a little oil. You really only need to remove the air bag but you have to follow the procedure which you will find under removing or changing your steering wheel.

Hope this helps I find this site to have lots of great info even if I only use a small portion of it.
