Default Visor Vanity Light dead

The light doesn't work on the driver side. Are these bulbs replacable? What's the typical failure mode? Wiring problem or fatigue or ??? Also the switch seems kind of loose. The replacement ones are pretty darn pricey. Anyone rebuilt these babies? I'm trying to prioritize my list of little stuff for my vacation. :) Thanks, ~Juliet

Thanks CJ. :D Once I dig into it and figure something out I'll contact you for parts.

Scorp - hey, finally an option! :D (We won't mention convertible option.). But no map strap. I can't see where there would be room for one on the visor with the mirror / light thinggie. I was told that the original owner of this car was a woman too, so it's no surprise that she got that option. :lol:
