Abstract
The disclosure concerns a vehicle sun visor having a recess in one of its surfaces and a housing in the recess where the bottom of the housing is a trough having a detent in one of its side walls and carrying a light source and an operating switch for the light source. The top is a insert which includes a detent clip to clip it to the bottom part. An opening in the top part provides access to a switch for the light source in the bottom part. A mirror is in the top part. An illumination window in the top part permits light to exit from the bottom part. There may be a point radiator for light at the illumination window. A displaceable cover over the mirror is spring-biased to translate open over the surface of the mirror to expose the mirror. There may be a point radiator for light at the illumination window. A spring-loaded knob connected with the cover holds the same closed and when the knob is operated, it releases the cover to be biased open by the rubber band spring.
