**70 OriginalRust** · 01-27-2020, 08:57 PM

Yes and I will work to get those pics posted tomorrow. Thanks. Rodney

**jaros44sr** · 01-28-2020, 03:13 PM

I WANT THESE, just trying to figure out what work is required to put on my truck

**70 OriginalRust** · 01-28-2020, 03:28 PM

Just let me know if you get figured out, I have included the original screws as well. Thanks

**70 OriginalRust** · 01-28-2020, 11:37 PM

Additional pics of the arms.

**Stocker** · 01-28-2020, 11:58 PM

Bought my new SS arms at NAPA. They use SS bolts instead of OEM-style acorn nuts & studs. Same size & shape as OEM arms.

NAPA # LIT97869, OReilly Truck-Lite 97869

**jaros44sr** · 01-30-2020, 11:46 AM

OK, I'll take them, thanks Stocker for the input

Let me get into PP

**jaros44sr** · 01-30-2020, 12:05 PM

sent pp for 50.00, let me know additional cost after shipping and I will get that amount off to you

Just ordered the arm at NAPA

**70 OriginalRust** · 01-30-2020, 12:07 PM

Sounds good received your PP and I will get you a shipping cost. Thanks. Rodney

**70 OriginalRust** · 01-31-2020, 12:43 AM

PM sent with shipping costs. Thanks

402GMC · 01-31-2020, 02:17 PM

can any one tell me what size the mirror head is on this style of mirror?

**James Pierce** · 01-31-2020, 03:28 PM

I have some of those, will get a pic for you.

**James Pierce** · 01-31-2020, 03:43 PM

Here is a pic do not know which is OEM.

The dirty one on the right is OEM.

**jaros44sr** · 02-01-2020, 10:50 AM

Stocker, does NAPA carry these?

**craneboy72** · 02-01-2020, 07:02 PM

I think they are both aftermarket. The one on the right is close but the bolt bracket on OEM is centered unless it’s just the way the picture is taken.

*randy500* · 02-01-2020, 08:44 PM

I posted replacement elbow and mirror head part numbers with pictures here.

Good eye craneboy, I completely missed that it wasn't centered. Same style as OEM other than that. Nice catch!

Yes, NAPA has correct replacement heads too, although the drawing indicates the bracket isn't quite centered. Props to Randy for posting part numbers.

**jaros44sr** · 02-02-2020, 10:16 AM

Thanks for the help guys, this board is a really great source for info.

the counter guy said they don't exist

**James Pierce** · 02-02-2020, 12:43 PM

Be advised that NAPA mirror is painted white. I think the truck lite is Stainless.

Try NAPA #97680. It includes arms which may not fit. Better still, anyone looking for these should go to a store to make sure what they're getting. Chances are the head is available separately.

My early '69 (Dec, 1968) came new with the mirror brackets off center. I realize that most were centered, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility of mirrors with the off center bracket being original. That said, I agree that at least most were centered. Since these mirrors were first used on the '69s, it's possible that that a change was made soon after their introduction. It's also possible that mine were shipped in error to GM.
