A vanity mirror assembly includes a housing which is adapted to be mounted to the roof structure of a vehicle and a generally L-shaped pivot rod with one end locked to the housing and an opposite end pivotally mounted to a vanity mirror frame. The pivot rod includes an offset portion defining a cam which engages a cam surface on the frame to control the pivotal motion of the frame with respect to the housing.

Pivot down vanity mirror assembly

A visor includes a molded polymeric core having a plurality of channels on at least one side defined by a pair of spaced upstanding walls with one of the walls having a plurality of spaced notches formed therein for receiving tabs projecting outwardly from aligned upstanding walls formed in the corresponding mating visor half. The tabs extend into the corresponding slots and the backing wall prevents their removal. Visors embodying another aspect of the present invention integrally include a plurality of outwardly projecting pins and corresponding mating recesses formed continuously around the periphery on opposite visor core halves for compressing the edges of the upholstery material and clamping them in a secure position as the visor halves are brought together during manufacturing.

Visor

An insertable mirror package for a visor which includes at least one panel defining a mirror frame and integrally including a lateral extension which defines at least in part guide means for a sliding cover extending and movable in a plane parallel to and in front of the mirror for selective movement between a first position covering the mirror and a second position uncovering the mirror. In the preferred embodiment, lamps are positioned behind lenses mounted adjacent the mirror in the mirror frame and a switch is mounted to cooperate with a cam on the cover such that as the cover is moved to an open position, the lamps are illuminated to provide illumination for the mirror for use in low, ambient light.
