My drivers side sun visor vanity mirror is coming loose and I'm guessing that the tabs that hold it to the sun visor are broken on top. I am trying to find a replacement one way or another and I wonder if you can just get the mirror assembly or do I have to buy the whole visor or can I just get a mirror assembly from some other GM car and switch it out with the broken one in my car? Any help in this area would be welcome. I keep running into dead ends or they want a lot money for the visor.

If you can't find a replacement, try Marc at VetteNuts. He may have a used one in excellent shape.

Repair it, mine came off and i removed the visor and reattached the mirror. There are posts on several ways to reattach, do a google search, good luck.

Do you also have lights.
I ask B/C I have a set.For an FRC no hanging mirrors but it has no light. Again this is for a FRC. I made the mistake of thinking it would work in a Vert. I have no use for them.
