what is this mirror from?
 

This is on a local guy's truck....he already painted the doors and wants new mirrors but nothing we have matches the holes. This mirror is about 61/2" tall overall and has a 4 1/2" round head. The base is plastic.

My buddy had a 66 chevelle that had mirrors simmilar to that if not he same. I couldn't tell you if they came on it or were aftermarket though.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

you're right....very similar. The Chevelle mirror "Swoops" up a little more but close.

His mirorrs were definatly not stock, now that I googled what stock ones look like,they were some kind of universal like this one. I think these might be the ones you are looking for.

I'm waiting for the guy to come back. He's one of our local cops that just did his truck....didn't check the mirrors until after painting and only has two mounting holes that don't match the factory mirrors.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

You could email the ebay seller and ask them to measure the mounting hole distance to make sure they will work.

Those look like some universals we sell at O'Reilly's. The plastic base sounds more aftermarket than original.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

the plastic base makes it seem like a $12.99 one from E-Bay...the only metal on this thing is the non-stainless screws holding the mirror head on

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

I think the ones from O'Reilly's are plastic as well. If you have some parts houses close by I would give them a call and see what they have. I have seen these mirrors in parts houses before, they are a pretty common universal mirror. Then you can physically check them to the vehicle and take them back if wrong with out the shipping hassle. It may be worth a shot.

Good idea....the guy is less internet savvy than my 98 year old grandmother

Looks like a CIPA brand mirror part number 17000 :chevy:

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

I knew it looked Cipa but I totally forgot the part number.

looks like a 65-66 mustang mirror to me

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

i thought 65- 66 mustang as well as i own 3 of them but the correc tmirrors for the mustang dont have plastic anywher eon them so i ruled it out but does look very similar as well.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

The GM mirror that is similar mounts to a base that is attached to the door. They also have the bowtie on them. So, while the mirror is similar to a GM mirror, it ain't the same.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

I prefer peeps. But those do look good.

Re: what is this mirror from?
 

There`s all kinds of mirrors.Now,if we can just find ones that fit the existing holes on this finished door.
