spicypeanut Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Anyone have a pair laying around? I need to replace the FORD mirrors the previous owner had installed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvsarge Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Did old BRAT's come with two mirrors? I thought they only came with the driver's side. Unless you paired up a driver's mirror from an MV or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicypeanut Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 I dont even know. All of my searching leaves me with more questions. Half the pictures I see of gen 1 brats have 2 mirrors, and half the pictures I see the gen 1 brats have 0 mirrors. I really have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Pre-79 you normally got one. I've seen a few where the owners insist it always had two so maybe as an option you could get the passenger side - pre 1979. In 79 they definitely outfitted many Brats and 4WD Wagons with the passenger side mirror. I think in some states it became mandatory around that year. Danny W. - drivesubies - should have those new whenever he gets around to digging them out. I have maybe one or two new in my stash but those are way buried right now and one goes to my wagon. If Danny can't come through just be patient and watch eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my car it looks like the holes are factory on the drivers door but whoever installed the passenger side did a pretty weak job. I've been looking for the last couple of weeks but so far I haven't found anything. Not even 1. I did a member search for Danny W. but didn't find anyone with that name.
