Of a pair of '69 side view mirrors.

I'm aware the passenger's mirror may not have come factory, but on the driver's side of my car, where the mirror is bolted on, there's a small hole about 1/4" in front of the mirror. Either they mis-judged it, or I don't have the correct mirrors on my car and I'd like to swap them.

Thanks, in advance  :cheers:

Here's what I'm referring to:





Here you can see the whole mirror:

Someone may have had other aftermarket ones on there. my 69 had those and the shop forgot to fill them when they did the body work.....

Interesting.. I wish I knew which mirrors could have been on the car. If they weren't obnoxious and could be mistaken for factory, I'd put them back on.. The hole is only on the driver's side.

That is a mopar mirror. I had some like that but can't remember what it came from right off the bat.

So you're saying it's a Mopar mirror that was on the car , leaving the extra hole??

You may be able to "cheat" the mirror ahead just enuf to cover the hole.

Youd probably need to ream the stud hole and redrill the small one.

Did you try that? or will that even work?

That I didn't try. Not a bad idea at all. I was just trying to prevent any more/bigger holes being bored in the door, but if I can eliminate this one, it's worth a shot. I'll go examine it. Thanks!
