Yes I did ground it.The reason I know this is I hooked up another visor that I have the same way and it worked.I did't mention in the 1st post that I lightly shook the visor and somethings moving around in there.Thanks

You have to be very careful but that mirror part should come out.

I'll go look at mine to make sure

I was also wondering if I took the screws out that are under the 2 lenses if I could lift the mirror and top plastic up+out of the visor to get a back end look at the small switch ?

After looking at mine it appears it is held down in the corners.

I tried prying it out with a putty knife but was afraid to brake the plastic that run across thre top and bottom in the middle beceause it is thin there.

It is obviously a friction fit then snap in the corners ....it can be removed ......done carefully.
