Can I order a mirror, mount, and rubber trim piece for a 69? And more importantly, would that be accurate for a 70?

Incase Bruce missed it;
I think you might be in error.
The roof mounted visor bracket is a different part, which did not support the mirror.
There was an early mirror, which I have not seen, but was made aware of - it used a different ball pivot and the design changed because those mirrors would loosen over time to the point where they could not be fixed.
The common "1970" mirror is in essence the same as the one used throughout the second generation, except it had a chrome back.
HERE is a link;
Click on it, and look at the hotlinked image for item 'C16' (sunvisors) - in that image you can see the way the visors mounted, and where the mirror was.
I hope this helps
