Thoughts on RV Junior mirrors: What is correct and do they work well?
Ive had my 65 SWB fleetside for well over 30 years and its my favorite vehicle in the old car fleet. I still use it as a runaround vehicle and light hauler anytime the weather permits. She still has the original stick mirrors with large rectangle heads. I have never particularly liked these mirrors as they tend to vibrate sometimes and the visibility isnt that great. As my eyes are getting older, its becoming more and more bothersome. I was thinking about putting some factory RV Junior (Im not even sure thats the correct term?) They have much larger heads plus I could bolt small spot mirrors below the mirror heads for even better visibility.
Questions for you all: I dont want to go through all the trouble obtaining and drilling holes in the doors to mount these mirrors only to find no real improvement. Those of you that Ive had these mirrors: are they effective and do you like them? I attached a picture of what I believe are the correct factory items, are these the correct mirrors I should be looking for? Do these mirrors come in both painted and stainless versions from GM? Were these ever a factory installed mirror or only dealer install?
