Factory rear view mirror confusion
In '69, getting a rear view mirror was an option, believe it or not. Mine didn't come with one, so a PO installed a glass mounted mirror, instead of the factory type that attaches to the roof of the cab.
Here's my question. I was at the junkyard today, and they had a 71 gmc and a similar year chevrolet. Both of them had roof cab mounted mirrors, but the actual roof of the cab had a hump in the metal lining. Almost like it provided extra space for the screws. My truck doesn't have they hump though. It is in the pic below. So, if I want to buy a factory type mirror, how will I be able to do it if my roof doesn't have the hump?  Another shot after I removed the cheesy covers from the visors lol  Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Factory rear view mirror confusion
1971 was the only year that had the mirror hump. You shouldn't have any problems mounting your mirror.

My 69 has the mirror on the roof without the hump and has no problems as well.
