It looks to be about the same size. You're best bet is to measure yours and compare it to the measurements of those.

OOO lighted Visors!
Signs on to Ebay to place bid. J/K
Meh, if they are a tad too long just wait for your mirror to fall off and re-glue it down a bit lower.
Damn, if they weren't tan tho!
My mom doesn't have her Concorde anymore or I would check for you.

well yeah thats obvious but every time i ask for specifics they wont tell me... they ask what kind of car i have and what not.. I wanted to get a old VW beatle headliner with bows and the dude wouldnt even tell me if it looked bigger than the size i told him my headliner was
Yeah someone did the buy it now on the lighted Neon visors I bidded on so I started thinking... I just noticed alot of things on the concords/lhs/intrepets/300m's are very simular in style.. like the door handles look exactly the same.. and they have much better looking lighted mirrors..
they only thing i was worried about beside them not fitting, is i would want to recover them in white.. cause thats what color my headliner will be

just get some lights visors out of a first gen. I have them in mine and they are a perfect fit, plus they have a little thing that extends the visor to block more sun.

wait a minute... you guys are scaring me..
unless most of these comments were sarcastic...
lighted mirrors? you gotts 2 be kidding !?!
Are you using it to put yer make-up on?
I don't think I've ever used the non-lighted cheap-o's that are in my stock visors!
...now if these were LCD monitors already mounted in visors....

how are you going to get the power to the mirrors? the closest source of power is from your rear view mirror. you'll have to splice into the correct wire (i'm not sure which one) and run it underneath the headliner (so the headliner would have to come out, and then go back in) solder the wires together, all to get mirrors that light up? sounds like more trouble than it's worth.
They have the dimmer switch on the caravan ones. see if they have some at a junk yard, and see how they wire them. may prove useful.

Most complicated process i have ever heard, for tapping into one wire running to the mirror. It's a contant 12v you want, which should be super easy to find.

I'll get a picture if you want. I got them more for the extended visor then the lighted part.
Edit: Pics
as you can see the light does leave a mark in the headliner.
The extenders are awesome when you have to move the visor to the side, it covers up that extra few inches. I have yet to hook up the lights but now that i remember i may do it today.

Yeah, I liked the lighted visors that were on on my 1GN. Adding visors like these merely makes up for DCX deleting them earlier in the 2GN run (they were originally available on our cars in '00 and '01).

The pink wire to the dome light would be a start. Connector C204 red in color located "left upper instrument panel" prolly near the speaker, if equipped is the place to plug in the harness if you can get one. It runs up the pillar to the visors/RV mirror.
