My 914 rubber visors did the same thing. Tighten the screws on the visors portion that fixed mine. Good luck and put some underwear on! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

I have 2 factory 1974 sets that I am pulling out, may have a 1972 if there is a difference.

I have no need for them and they are just in the way of the top manipulation.

I will take pics if you need.

Odd, thought a magnet held that little mirror flapper closed? I have 914rubber visors as well. I'll have to look.

If there’s a magnet it’s pretty weak but I do like the underwear and duct tape trick
