Need a mirror

Post by Wes »

While I was working in the shop I broke one of my mirrors. I'm looking for a replacement, its a rectangular "Yankee". :oops:

If you do not want the mil-spec OEM, I used a generic rectangular pair from Advanced Auto Parts and painted them. It was about $12 for the pair. You can see it in this photo:

Most of the vendors have the round replacments, you will have to look around if you want the OEM :)

If you just broke the glass in it any automotive glass shop should be able to cut you a new one and replace it in just a couple of minutes.

I felt that for what I originally paid, replacing the whole unit would be cheepest, but these original Yankee brand rectangle mirrors are hard to find. I wanted the mirrors to match, so I went to a frame shop my friend owns and got some scrap mirror. I cut it myseft and glued it in. Not perfect but looks pretty good.
