those look like the mirrors used in a bunch of mid 80's Ford pickups and Broncos......ive seen a nearly identical mirror at Kragen.

Wow those are very close, though they look kind of cheap. Hard to say by the picture.

Anything else?

Because of the shape of the mirror head, these look exactly like D6TZ17696A.

If the mirror head is 5 1/4" x 8 1/4" and are the "Swing Lock" type of mirror, that's exactly what they are.

However, you are not going to be able to find one that matches, because someone has bent the bracket so the mirror head sits level.

The problem is...that this style of mirror was not available until 1973 which means it will not fit the 1967/72's door contour properly.

So...either the bracket has to be bent, or the mirror head will sit upwards at an angle.

D6TZ17696A / Fits: 1973/79 F100/350 / 1975/90 Econoline / 1978/79 Bronco.

btw: There are three other styles of these same type of mirrors used 1973/79. Some have a different shape to the head, some have round brackets.

1980/96, add another four.
