I just ordered one of the 65-67. Its an exact copy of the original. For the price, it sure beats finding a pitted original for $200-300.

Critter1 as for the repop EMPI Day / Night mirror thats a repoped Porsche 356 / 912 Day / Night mirror with VW base mirror stem
NOT an exact copy of an EMPI Day / Night mirror. Don't get me wrong the vender of the mirror is selling a good copy
BUT not exact of the EMPI one, notice the mounting in the middle mirror is a stock factory Porsche 356 / 912 mirror is higher than an OG EMPI one:

Please don't get me like I have nothing against the vender in his AD he never said it was exact copy
but for $100 I think thats a DAM! good price for the mirror. why?
check the price for the Porcshe 356 / 912 mirror:

Over the phone, he said it was an exact copy. Oh well. Your're right about it being a nice piece for the money.
