Yup, I've done it a few times. I just drill the hole and then allow the latch piece to "crush" a new spot in the headliner. I've tried cutting before and the chance for screwing it up is high for me (clumsy to the core) and without cutting, it looks great and you have a small buffer that allows for being not quite with the slight curvature of the latches.
The only problem I found was that the 99 visors were smaller because 1) you tend to sit higher in a 99 with the steering wheel all a whack like it is, and, 2) the windshield is not as tall. I found that with the 900 visors, when they are down, they block A LOT of sunshine and a good portion of the road...fine by me.
