What is this?

Is this for a mirror? It's for a 1974 Blazer.

Re: What is this?

That is one of three brackets that attach the removeable hardtop. For the first few years (73-75?) Blazers still had the full hardtops that you could take off. These brackets were attached to the removeable top and the top of the windshield frame. Someone has added a way to mount a rear view mirror to the bracket. I am pretty sure that starting in 1972 all Blazer rear view mirrors were stuck on the inside of the windshield. I am including a picture of a set of three brackets.

I bet someone at some point stuck a speaker up there for their CB or 2 way, is just a guess.
