No connection. If I win a lotto, I'd buy a set.

I didn't realize that '74-'76 didn't have the passenger mirror. Is that true?

My '74 had a passenger mirror in the visor. But, I had it recovered during the last visor group buy. The originals get so "puffy" with age that they look horrible.

This set that is for sale looks great... first time I've seen NOS ones posted.

I have only owned a '75 and a '76, and both had mirrors.

These are being sold by Cary who goes by A&P Girl here. She was selling them here recently but without the mirror. I don't recall how much she was asking.

I have to confess that I am curious as to how she has sourced these. Would not be surprised if she found out they were used on another German car and bought a bunch of new old stock. Regardless of how she pulled it off, I always admire capitalism in action.

Hey.....I just bought those.

They were incredible.

Hopefully will look very nice in my 1971 restoration I'm embarked on now.
My car had NO sun visors.
Should be a big improvement.

Thanks for the heads up...914 World.
Cheers

Info on what model year had what visor can be found here: http://www.p914.com/p914_mirrors_vanity.htm

Despite getting the model year info wrong, those visors look really close to the originals. The vinyl is more textured, but otherwise they look quite nice. I don't know about $450 + shipping worth of nice, but definitely nice.

I would be in up to $200. Maybe not possible but that's how much a new set is worth to me.

Mine are classically puffy & I'd be interested in 2 pair, @ a reasonable price.

Wasn't her first go round selling at $250ish? They look original and I'd like a set but they're too good looking at $450 until I get the car repainted.

Maybe its just me but I really get irked when people charge a super-premium price and then still have to throw shipping charges on top of it. The $15 bucks bugs me more than the $450!

Look at the German vinyl, they were $130, I suspect the markup is 100%. I understand a business has to make money to survive, but when its excessive you leave the door open to other competitors to better that price. If you don't make the part its a commodity, and should be treated as such.support you required margins, bur greed is ugly.
