Non Handed Plastic Sunvisor

Abstract

Disclosed is a vehicle visor that may be used on either the right side or the left side of a vehicle without the need for side specific parts. The vehicle visor has a textured outer surface requiring no additional finishing covering. The vehicle visor may also provide for the mounting of a vanity mirror or a vanity mirror and light. Thus, the vehicle visor of the present invention is non-handed resulting in cost savings and simplified assembly.
