Default Sun Visor question

Curious what your thoughts are
would you delete the lighted mirrors if you could or is keeping
them a must?
maybe delete drivers or passengers but keep the other?
Looking at getting a couple of pairs covered in leather and they want an additional $75.00
to keep the mirrors. He explained how they are afixed inside the visor and it’s a royal
pain to get them back on after you take them off

I don't think I have used the vanity mirrors in either of my vettes since owning them.

I only use mine to see if the bulbs light. I wouldn't miss them at all. Besides the first time the cover breaks off you will be saying if only I had eliminated them when I had the chance.

No vanity mirrors are one of the few creature comforts I don't miss when driving the 1970. I hate vanity mirrors, I never use them and the hot young stripper wife drives me nuts flipping it open and closed 20 times on every trip when we take the C6 to see how she looks.

I have never used one in any of the Corvettes I owned, I'll now look to see how dirty the mirror are since you brought it up.

Will be getting rid of mine. I've never seen anyone sell repaired visor with fixed covers without using ugly rivets either.
