Mirror broken HELP

Hello,

I want to fix these mirrors on this 1966 ford f100, but I cant find them anywhere? Does anyone know what kind of mirrors these are and if I can get a link to purchase some new ones?

They don't appear to be genuine Ford mirrors so some aftermarket brand it would seem. I'm not sure what they might be, but often it is possible to remove the rubber that holds the mirrors in the frame and get a new mirror glass cut and then reinstall it. Here's some Ford ones that you remove the mounting arms then remove the upper and lower plates held on with the two screws and they fall apart.

Do a few eBay searches for ‘ west coast mirrors’ , ‘jr west coast mirrors’ and also for ‘nos towing mirrors’ . At any given rime, there are genuine Fomoco, plus mostly aftermarket stuff. Right now, under ‘west coast mirrors’ there are 998 items listed, Can’t tell, but yours look to be about 5”x 10” mirrors? Check regularly, what you need will show up. I bought an NOS duplicate set of the aftermarket ones that came on my truck a couple years ago for 80.00. . If I waited till one was broken, I’m convinced I’d have a problem locating one.

That mirror head disassembles by removing the center bolt. It will most likely twist off. Often it can be replaced with all thread. You favorite rust buster, lube is your best friend here. Once the center bolt is out, the upper and lower end cap lift off. The seal and glass can be slid out the top or bottom... Any glass shop should be able to cut a replacement... The more work you do the cheaper the replacement should be...
