Abstract
The sun visor includes a core formed of first and second foldable halves. A recess is formed in one of the halves and receives a filler member. In one aspect, the filler member has a thickness the same as the depth of the recess. A cover is mountable over the core and the filler member. Another aspect, a mirror assembly is mountable in the recess. In one aspect, the mirror assembly is mounted in the recess, with the cover interposed between the mirror assembly and the core half Lock projections carried on the mirror assembly are extendible through apertures in the core half into engagement with lock receivers carried on the other core half to attach the mirror to the core when the core halves are locked together. The mirror assembly may include a mirror, or a frame surrounding a mirror, or an optional pivotal cover carried on the frame or optional illumination elements carried in a frame for illuminating the mirror.
