Correct position for rear-view mirror ???
Well I ordered a few items that I need for my truck....one of those items was a rear view mirror.
Also I ordered a glovebox liner, glovebox light, and a dome light. Anyway, there are now holes in the roof of my truck.... Was a rear-view optional or something ?? It doesn't look like they were filled in either. Also, when I got the truck, there was a "glue on windshield" type sitting on the floor, but that isn't stock is it ?? So anyway, where actually should I mount it ?? Sorry these pictures suck because of the cell phone cam use.... Thanks  - - -

Re: Correct position for rear-view mirror ???
From what i can tell rear view mirrors were optional till 66. Mine doesn't have one either. There was never a stick on one as far as I know either.

Re: Correct position for rear-view mirror ???
Mine does not have the holes in the cab. The po put a glue on mirror in it. The factory old one looks better.

Re: Correct position for rear-view mirror ???
The interior mounted rear-view mirror was not optional, but standard equipment on the 1960-1966 Chevy light-duty trucks, according to Chevrolet Pickup Color History book, published in 1994 by MBI Publishing Company and available from www.motorbooks.com. The rear-view mirrors that became standard equipment in 1966, were the exterior, door-mounted rear-view mirrors.
The factory interior rear-view mirror is centered left-to-right and the first two holes are 3/4" above the windshield grommet and the top hole is 2-1/2" above the windshield grommet. I hope this information is helpful. Last edited by LILRED66; 10-05-2007 at 01:34 PM. |

Re: Correct position for rear-view mirror ???
My 1962 k20 dont have one either and there are no holes for one, but my 1965 k20 has a stock mirror. It was put over the 4x4 instructions. Wonder if maybe it was a dealer prep thing that got done if the dealer felt like it.
