    Don't like the square look of my current driver's side mirror and don't like the fact that I don't have one on the passenger side.

    Found a sweet deal on these mirrors, usually $15, found it for $8.75 at summit (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CIP-17000/)

    I agree entirely. I think that I'm going to get a pair.

    this thing is huuuuuuge . . . don't know if I like it. What you guys think? And the holes are different width apart so gotta redo the holes on the driver side.

    the trick thing to do for mirrors is to find some off a newer vehical that fit the look of the mav. the newer retro look cars have some good looking mirrors. the ones on the ssr look pretty cool and look like they would flow with our cars lines. they are power mirrors so that would be cool put the power controles in.

    I actually like both of those ideas. the jcwhitney actually is a nice rectangular one.

    Which one do you guys think is better? I think that the first one, the sport mirrors would fit better, but I kinda like the other ones. They both cost $12.99 each at JC Whitney

    They look kinda like plastic (so does the price). I'm going to go to this place that is basically in Garland. Dallas Mustang Parts - 10720 Sandhill Road Dallas, Texas 75238 http://www.dallasmustang.com/mustang-parts/category/Mirrors/160

    Otherwise, I like the design on the back of the first one.
