Mirror, mirror on the....door - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need ideas for mirrors. Something bigger than the POS little, round, loose thing that presently hangs on the door. Pics would help. Thanks.

I don`t know what you have now.But,no round mirrors came on a`72.The sport mirrors may not give the greatest rear view,but a great trade-off for best looks.
Those mirrors that Blue85 showed are some aftermarket/JC Whitney trucker-style.I guess all verticle rectangular mirrors like that are considered "west coast" mirrors.But,those aren`t Srs.The west coast seniors that came on GMs had 18" heads(standard for most this style)and had a tripod mounting design.The juniors had two-point mounting.The upper was at the top of the window and the lower was below the window.
Bamm,those are bigger?Is that what to tell the girls?

How about factory sport mirrors?

I can see great out of these mirrors. West Coast Seniors, I believe.

Somehow I don't think that is what he was going for

The flamed ones are the ones I have. It's going to be some work, but I'm nowhere near ready to install them, They should look real good! ................Jerry

How about these one's? I'm taking them off and going with something different, but think they looked pretty cool.

Whatnow, I like those. Are they 69-70 style or what? Stainless?

I don't know, my doors are from a 72, so I'm guessing it's 72? I think they are stainless steel as well.
