Sport Mirrors

Post by FFRKing »

I will be putting Sport mirrors on my '68 shortly and would like to know about the different suppliers.
Nobody seems to list the hole spacing in any of their listings. One of my doors already had 2 holes and the other has 3 holes. I don't have the measurements with me but was wondering if anyone could tell me the correct hole spacing, so I know which holes to weld up.
I would really like a nice pair of original mirrors that aren't quite so shiny and new as my truck will be a daily driver and none of the trim is perfect.

Thanks

Chris

Not a direct answer to your question, but might be best to acquire your mirrors prior to doing bodywork so it's based on your actual conditions.
