Not sure how the 66 bug visors but on later bugs the mirror is offset so the visors will only fit one way (the cut-out matches the offset of the mirror).
If there is a screw to tighten the grip on the spindle then I would do it so the screw is hidden when the visor is up against the roof. If you need to tighten/loosen it just fold it down. Hope this helps!
