Any ideas what these were for?
Ok, have a set of these on both doors at the leading edge of the vent windows. I haven't seen side mirrors that use them, but that was my first guess . . . Any ideas?

Or something to do with exterior mirrors. [They are not WC Jrs, though.] CB Antenna mounting brackets? IDK

Maybe mirrors along this line

Re: Any ideas what these were for?
Gotta be it. Are they below-the-eyeline?
I wonder why '68 West Coast Jrs were bolted to the top of the door frame then?

One advantage these have over the other kind is you could put those metal window deflectors on. With the RPO D29 ''RV Jr Mirrors'' the top mount interferes.

Bus Type extension mirrors, RPO D38. Or an aftermarket version like Roberk.
