I did it to my cress the other day. Just put them in the right spot or you'll be flamed on as a ricer. :roll:

Apparently its not good enough to mount them on the side ( as these were designed), it has to be on the top part. Whatev, I still think mine are dope. If you wanna do it do it! Personally, I bet some Square Craft type mirrors would loot cool on your scooby. Now DO IT! :mrgreen:

How about Toyota TE71/72 KE70 mirrors?

Image

Celica's are a bit angular..

Image

GA6# Celica's. Same as above?

Image

S130Z's would look OK I think..

You can always spray them to match the rest of the car :wink:

I do have a pair of non-chromed ones, but they are booked. Those have no motors though

I'd rather have no motor.


lots of work to adjust the mirrors but I doubt there's too much room under my fender...

Not much room under the fenders for motors? Well, the motors are inside the mirror housing..

No, that's usually a spring under a plastic case. It gives the mirror some movement if it is bumped.

I'm loving the dark pair in the middle, any chance we could get some info on that pile of fender mirrors? I've wanted some for my 240z for awhile, I just haven't found anything that I think would fit nicely.

The one with the speed holes are Corolla E20-series mirror, still looking for its pair! The lone green one is Celeste/GTO mirror. Given away to a friend who has its matching pair. Have another pair but not at my hands yet. Someone on this forum already offered to buy them ;)

The dark pair in the middle are indeed 240Z fender mirrors. Recently sold to a guy in the UK. These are available new from Nissan but a bit pricey. I have another pair but they have no anchors, just like the the ones in the photo. Not at my hands yet :D

I do have a pair of similar mirrors at my hands now, in chrome, complete with anchors but the stems are a bit shorter. They are 510 mirrors.

US$110 will get you the black pair on the bottom right. They are Napoleon GP, made in Japan. Popular aftermarket fitment in Japan back then.

The red ones are off a Datsun Sunny B210 (the older roundish model, not the square one). Not selling though :wink:

Good rule of thumb, as long as it's on the front half of the fender, you are fine. :tu:

You could also try sitting in the driver's seat while someone holds it up to the fender for you? :P
