Not a mystery to me. Most 82-A closed cabs that I have seen into March 1929 do not have the D-nuts and therefore would have had the sun visor mirror bracket. I had a March 1929 AA which was like that.

Given the RGJS indicates late 1928 as the startup for the D-nuts, then there was an overlap of bracket usage. The cab of the vehicle determine which bracket was originally used. If it were up to me (which it was not), I would say that early 1929 was when the D-nuts started.
