In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the vehicle includes a conically shaped socket having a keyway formed therein terminating in a horizontally extending flange and the spring clip includes an end with and inclined edge which lockably engages the flange of the socket while the torque fitting includes a key which aligns with and prevents rotation of the torque fitting within the socket allowing the visor rod to rotate with respect to the torque fitting. Also in a preferred embodiment a bezel is provided which includes an upwardly extending leg extending behind the spring leg to lock the spring leg into position once installed.
