door mirrors

When it comes to door mirrors there are many options, these are the ones I selected for my car at repaint.

sjcurtis,

I really like these mirrors you posted pictures of here. Are they made locally near you or did you find them in a catalog such as MSA?

I think they would be a great replacement for the stock mirror on my '75 Z since they are similar in style and size as the original (USA) factory units! Plus they would enable me to have a passenger side mirror.

I couldn't tell from the photos if the passenger side mirror is convex or flat. Could you please fill us in on that?

Were they easy to install with what was included with them (spacers, shims, etc.)? And did they require drilling new holes or modifying the existing ones ?

Well, they look great on your car!

Enjoy,

Rob

both mirrors are FORD catologue parts from an aussie built sports special the 1971 Ford XY GT FALCON. I believe they also made a place in history on a mid sixties pony car but I do not know which one both mirrors are flat face so you just manouver it to suit . Held on by two 3/8 nuts about an inch apart in the same plane. you have to drill through the double skin and lock behind, this will be evident when you look at your doors. I should be able to source part numbers and a Aus supplier. In the states they should be available if I can supply the pony car model and age.

cheers
