High mount mirrors for low rider trucks?

Where can I find them and what are they called?
Have a 72 c10 lowered and flat black. Door mount mirrors look gay. Want to find the ones that mount to the front pillar or high part of the door

Re: High mount mirrors for low rider trucks?

WOW!. I think its opposite day today..and im orIginally from cali and no one does that.. I bought my truck in the back woods of Seattle area. with that set up.. what they did was turn left and right square mirrors switch side and hang them up upside down. YOU can do that...- u can do whatever u like to your truck. IMO it dose not look good. my truck look like two square bunny ears sticking out driving down the free way. and Im not going to post pics because I don't want to get laft at...that was the first thing I threw in the trash when I tore down my truck..

Re: High mount mirrors for low rider trucks?

Sounds like you are talking about peep mirrors. They come in a ton of different styles and mounting options. I Googled it, lots to see.

Re: High mount mirrors for low rider trucks?

yes, they're called peep mirrors. They're completely useless, but they look cool...

Re: High mount mirrors for low rider trucks?

whoa, someone has a potty- mouth! They are peep mirrors. Yogi's rod parts, Southern rods & parts, and most rod part vendors sell them. I have had them on a couple of hotrods I've had. Look cool, but not good for seeing whats behind.

I don't know much about you, other than being either homophobic or in love with the word "gay" (latent homo?). You can do what you want with your truck, but don't categorize trucks or those who drive them, that have mirrors and we won't categorize you. What do you call a feller who works on his truck for years yet doesn't even know what a peep mirror is? They've been around since the '50s. I won't point out a group that weak males tend to single out in a feeble attempt to bulk themselves up, but I will say anyone who spends a lot of time building a great truck that doesn't use mirrors that help prevent rear end damage (or worse) from backing or changing lanes is far less intelligent than ones who have mirrors that get the job done.

As far as your attitude goes, get another one
