Upgraded mirrors glass

I was driving a mariner the other day and noticed the side mirrors look alot like the obs mirrors.

Has anyone tried updating the glass itself with the blind spotTed mirrors fromay the escapes or similar.

Next jy trip I'm hunting 1 down to verify fitment. More then likely they will have to be epoxied on to the motor but I'm just worried about them fitting in the housing.


This is what I am referring to

They look very similar

Stick on blind spot mirrors would be easier and probably cheaper. The other mirrors look to be a slightly different shape.

I'll save you the trouble. We've got a 12 Escape & stick-ons don't come close. So this appealed enough that I just went out & made a template & laid it over my 94's...

Close but no cigar.

Little too tall & not quite wide enough. The curve wouldn't look quite right.
