passenger mirror


Guest

Recommended Posts

does anyone know if anyone makes a mirror for the passenger's side that mathces the origional body colored mirror on the drivers side? I like how the origional mirror on the drivers side looks, so i want to try to get a mirror to match it on the other side.

Lloyd,

I know that the chrome passenger side mirrors (non-remote) are available from several parts places. I don't believe that a chrome remote mirror was ever offered for the passenger side of FGMCs, though.

Well i have good news and bad news.

First what you are talking about is the SPORT MIRROR. It was avaliable in '71 i believe as an option and in '72 as part of the Custom package (driver side)

 

GOOD NEWS: smile.gif They are avaliable, but very scarce. I've been looking for a while now but haven't seen any for sale on Ebay in that past year or so.

I know that The Parts Place (Chicago) has them, but...

BAD NEWS: frown.gif They only sell them as a set (Driver remote & Passenger) for i think aroung $300 - $350 US. They will ONLY sell them as a set (trust. i've asked) Otherwise i have not seen anyone else who has them.

 

Just as a note DO NOT try to sub a '73 and up mirror or a Nova/Chevelle/Etc. mirror as the angles where they sit on the car do not match and the mirror will look very weird ... unless you happen to be a contortionist.

 

I do know for a fact that they do exist. I have pictures! But i believe they were very rarely ordered.

 

If you do happen to find one, or perhaps ... GASP! ... a few of them please let me know marchies402custom@rogers.com

 

Good Luck!

Are you sure Marchie? I believe you have pictures, but are the mirrors legit? I have never seen a passenger side sport mirror, nor have I seen a build sheet showing the option. I have no idea; I just thought they didn't exist. Maybe they only came on Montes with the LS-6 option?

These are the pics. If it was added afterward to the car i cannot tell you. I do know that the Parts Place sells them as a set.

My build info lists i believe G84??? and says driver remote and passenger sport mirrors. but my car does not and i was told never had the two mirrors.
