These Mirrors...
 
I seen these mirrors on ebay, and was wondering should these fit an 82 GMC Sierra? EDIT: According to the description they will fit.

Does anyone have pics of a square body with these mirrors?

Thanks guys.

Do be carefull with aftermarket mirrors a lot of them are not stainless and will rust in a few months with mild weather and washing.

Yeah, that's a good point. It says these are steel, but it doesn't say if it's stainless. Since they are painted black already, should that keep them from rusting?

all depends on how good the paint and the application of the paint is/was.

Well at $60 if they do rust it's not like your going to be out of a lot of money.

Yah. See I got some new ropopones and they were nice. But they were chromed good on the outside only. I removed them with my 9iron and went to a wrecking yard and got new ones

I think I might end up trying these. I think they would go well with the blacked out look I'm going for, also planning on a black phantom grille as well.

Try them. Tell us how good they are. If they are bad well at least maybe others will see this and find better
