G71 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 my 71 has the original remote drivers mirror which has the thicker bezel , but does not have a passenger mirror. its in for a repaint so now is the time to address.. i see the parts place has a passenger side view to match the original drivers remote, other than that all the new pair kits seem to be the thin manual type (including morris which was mentioned) trying to decide if i should just get the new thinner/manual all around or try the passenger side "match" has anyone used the remote passenger match? if so does it exactly match the drivers side? also do the gaskets sold by the vendors match the footprint of the original drivers? im not concerned about originality. thanks for any advice.

MC1of80 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 The mirror sold to match the drivers remote mirror is not remote and it does match. The lower gasket matches as best as possible. You have to match one that gets the mirror in the best position for you. Here is a pic of the "thick" mirror that matches my "thick" drivers remote on my 70 SS...

MC1of80 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I actually purchased it from ausleys Chevelle parts. The one from the Parts Place, ground up etc are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
