These mirrors sold at autozone suck. From factory the pivot point is goofed up.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

I've got 80's ford mirrors on mine.. Really like em
a lot better than the old billboard looking things I
had before. The 80's mirrors are more aerodynamic,
and swing away, etc..

Thats what i had before a hit and run driver plowed his mirror through my mirror.


Then the 16.00 head only replacement was loose real bad. i broke the glass getting it out. tightend the ball stud deal and glued the mirror back together. It seemed tight when i was holding it in one hand and trying to adjust with the other.


bolted it on to the arm and it wobbled around just from idling.

I still can't get used to my 'jumbotron' I almost turned into someone making a left the other day... of course i just worked 15 hrs.
I was thinking of the hot rod 'peeper' mirrors.
