Random aftermarket add on sport/racing mirrors from the corner discount auto parts store found common in the 70's. You could take them to a local glass shop and see if they can cut and fit something for you. Let us know what they say.

Similar ones are still available. The price sure has gone up over the years. I think we used to see these for under $20pr.

Thank you for the in formation I did find a glass shop that will cut the glass they wanted 50 per side so the 77 for a new pair is not bad.

I laughed a little seeing the only 77.95 because you mentioned only paying 20.

Unless you really like them, I'd take them off and weld up the holes, and find some real truck mirrors you can actually see out of. I think you'll find if you ever get to drive that those mirrors will be pretty much worthless.

So I looks like I will stick with the mirrors that are on the doors they are the small round ones is there a good way to get those adjusted so you can see out of them I have read previous threads about it but did not see a solid answer on adjustment

I have a large camper shell on my truck. When I got it, it was already equipped with a set of aftermarket Jr. West Coast style mirrors. But even if it did not have the shell, I cannot imagine using the puny stock mirrors.
