Any one have a vanity mirror mounted in your Hornet?

If you do, how did you mount it (send pictures if you can)?

My wife just has to have one.

    Jim, Most vanity mirrors were mounted on the underside of the passenger side interior sun visor. That way when the visor was flipped down the vanity mirror would pop up.

    Were the interior sun visors a factory option?

    Can they still be had?

    I'm pretty sure that was standard equipment.

    Walt here. Just go to any auto store and they all carry vanity mirrors.

    Hudson made a Vanity Mirror #HA-207299. I have seen a few come and go on Ebay. They were screwed to the back of the passenger sun visor.



    Like many of the accessory items that show up on Ebay they are not cheap.

    I was at a local Rumblers CC show last Feb with my 49 sedan and some kid with a 55 Chevy wagon that I'd never met before came up with this and told me I needed it. He related how he had found it on some junkyard crawl clipped to a 60's Dodge visor that hadn't been flipped down in decades. I told him what

    a cool gesture I thought it was and that I've had a 57 Chevy wagon for

    35 years and had lots of spare stuff and flipped him a $20.

    So its not just a neat old Hudson vanity mirror,its a new friend I made

    that day.

    Now that I see that one, I think my grandparents had the Buick model in their '50 Buick. The little rectangular boxes are etched so you can write on them with pencil, then erase to re-use for the next oil change or trip. Neat item, and I agree, a very nice gesture by a fellow car guy.
