I was curious how many have the mirror option on their visors? Anybody ever have trouble keeping them from falling down? I know I've had to replace my plastic inserts and I'm sure the mirrors make them heavier than the reg ones. Seems like a cool option. Just curious.
Personally, I have only ever seen one fgf with that option, and on that car the mirror itself was missing. Just the plugs and a shadow was left.
I think that was a more common option starting in the mid to late 70's.
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

Yeah, that's my same experience. Don't think I've ever seen one with it but not sure because of course the visor would have to be down. It must've been a whole different option as opposed to something that came in a package. I wonder if anyone repops the mirrors?
My other 9 had a vanity mirror, a base 350, w/o ac, m/d p/s, and remote mirror. But the visos, ash tray, and glov box lid were thrown away because, I guess, a sfb coulnd't stand it because I was in my second new company truck.
It's not the mirror causing the problem. The plastic tips on the end help, but the main problem is the adjustment screw, the slotted screw. Hogey it down some. If it continues to loosen, try removing them and clean out the internals.
Over the 34 years of non-stop owership, I have found this to be part of vehicle pm, needing a tweak however often.
I have a set that the mirrors are gone from. I was thinking about whether I wanted to get some replacement mirrors for them or sell them off. Just was curious how many were around. Seems odd they would put them on the drivers as well as the pass side.
Mine has the vanity mirrors on the visors, but they stay up just fine. It was originally owned by a lady. lol.
IIRC theres a screw that you can tighten at the knuckle? or is that another make I`m thinking of? I know that on my Triumph ,you just bend the rod that enters the visor to keep it up...
