mirror ?

Hello,
I need some side mirrors (on the door) for my 1970 F100. What are the options without putting new holes in the door? currently there are a set of universal mirrors on that are not high enough and can't keep their position making them basically useless.

additionally, I would like to replace my rear view mirror without changing the mount nugget on the windshield any ideas here?

any help would be appreciated

Without pictures, it's difficult to answer your first question as Ford offered many different styles and types of outside mirrors.

1970/72 F100/750: There were two different inside mirrors. One is a Day/Night mirror, one is not.

1969 and later cars used these same two mirrors, but...on Mavericks/Comets/Pinto's/Mustang II's, the mirrors are shorter.

Both mirrors are black plastic, all glued to a separate bracket that is glued to the glass.

1968/69 F100/750. The inside mirrors are not the same. They look similar at first glance, but use a different mounting system.

The inside rear view has the day/night selectable tilt lever on my truck.

I will see about posting a pic of the side mirrors.

thank you for your response.
