Wow...tiny! LOL!

Maybe after it's all one color it'll look right to me. Your truck, whatever floats your boat.

I like them, they do look about the size of the mirrors on my truck. How do they attach to the door? although I do like to open my wing glasses occasionally.

The mirrors he has looks just like the ones on my dad's 73 mustang. Maybe check aftermarket?

I don't know if they still carry them, but autozone had some mirrors almost exactly like mine for like $11 each I remember looking at them because I needed and still need a passenger side mirror, My brother took mine out on a fence post years ago when the truck was still my dads. I like my mirrors I can see good enough and if I don't trust them I'll turn around.

AutoZone.com | Shopping | Accessories | Product Detail - **** Car Mirror; Universal; Oblong; 5.25 in. x 3.75 in.; Chrome;

Apparently they still carry them, heres a link to them autozone.
