Can anyone identify this side mirror

The mirror looks like it may have been an option, but I suspect it was after market this is the first one I have seen.

Re: Can anyone identify this side mirror

I have never seen one exactly like that -- the mirror head looks like a common aftermarket item but the mount looks rather odd. I'd say it's an aftermarket unit.

It is aftermarket mirror they tend to break a the 1st pivot mount. I ended up cracking/breaking 3 of them due to just ware and use.

Re: Can anyone identify this side mirror

They are a very common aftermarket mirror from the mid-70's all the way through until the mid-90's. They weren't expensive. Most all of them are plastic with a chrome finish. So, by now you know they aren't GM by any stretch of the imagination.
