    Thats because in 1969 rear view mirror's were glued on the windshield and placed lower so they made up the gap by making the visor thicker near the mirror in 69. Chris

    Bought a set of 69 cream/black from Lakewell (wrongly advertised on their site) - they fit perfectly, quality is nice.

    That is why it has 67 sun visors. Porsche seemed to make a habit of using up their obsolete parts on RHD cars, 914/6s and 912Es..

    Jim,
    I thought that USA '69 cream/black coupe sun visors were one-year-only in some respect. Is that incorrect? Thanks,
