ABSTRACT:
The disclosure concerns a sun visor having an illuminated mirror supported in a housing in a recesss in the body of the sun visor. A light source is located behind the mirror and it has exposed contacts. A metal heat insulating plate is located between the light source and the mirror and the metal plate has an anodized, electrically non-conductive surface facing into the housing preventing short circuiting of the light source if the contacts touch the metal plate. The metal plate is deformed to produce beads projecting forward into contact with the mirror, thereby defining an insulating air space between the mirror and the metal plate. A translucent frame in the housing supports the mirror and permits emergence of light around the mirror. The frame includes clip connections for holding the mirror and the metal plate and for holding the frame to the sun visor body.
