A sun visor includes a visor body attached to a pivot rod. The sun visor is pivotally mounted to a vehicle roof and/or headliner by using a visor mount assembly. The visor mount assembly includes a mounting bracket, attached to the pivot rod, and a mount for securing the rod and the mounting bracket to the roof or other mounting surface. The mount includes a multi-sided base that is spaced above the mounting surface. The base is substantially triangular in shape with three sides. Each side has a first leg, a second leg, and a third leg attached to the base in a cantilevered fashion. The first and second legs flex inwardly as the mount is inserted through a mounting hole in the roof. The third legs include a flat tab extension which forms a mounting point for attachment of the mount to the headliner and mounting bracket. Ultimately, the roof is gripped between the first and second legs of the mount when the sun visor mounted onto the vehicle roof. The triangular shape of the mount prevents rotation from occurring between the mount and the roof.
