yeah, they don't look so good. at 55, I don't look so good either. tired of bobbing my head around like a rap star to see in those puny autozone mirrors.

$30 delivered from eBay. Right mirror is convex - "Objects are closer..."

Nice, and you can mount a light between the lower bar and the door.

If you dont like the convex mirror you can take it to a body shop and have them cut and epoxy a piece of flat miror right onto the convex one.. My grandpa did that on a couple of newer powered mirrors without any problems.

Those look really funtional. I have a set of stainless mirrors from a former Jeep project that I've been thinking of using. I like the idea of mounting a small light in the void under the mirror.
