Decent quality mirrors

Looking for a set of decent quality mirrors. Already have some cheap ones, plastic housing, plastic lens. Can't adjust, can't see anything through vibrations.

Something like this, but these are out of stock
https://shop.broncograveyard.com/197...uctinfo/24370/

Ebay doesn't have much right now. Can adapt 80-96 style if those are available.

What are other options?

There are other options but they're going to cost as much or more than the ones you listed such as the type 7. those repops aren't bad but if you find some good original ones they are stainless so they usually clean up pretty nice.

Personally I don't like the newer ones it's obvious they're incorrect. and I'd never put an aftermarket mirror on. the originals come up for sale all the time I'd just keep looking.

LMC Truck offers that same mirror for $49.95 each. I don't know if they're in stock or not. I've thought about buying a pair myself. I don't see decent used ones for sale very often, and when I do, they're rather "spendy".

Thanks for the links I think I can make one of those work. Going on a 72 that had the 3 pt mount west coast. now has cheap as 80-96 style. So Lots of holes already. I can bend adapt/modify as needed. West coast Jr.s would be my 1st choice but need to be first in line and have $300+
