$7 swing-away Track/kick Mirrors
« on: November 23, 2004, 03:18:24 PM »
I broke my 2nd mirror off in the woods recently and didn't have the $$$ needed to replace it with a junkyard direct replacement(they are charging too much for parts these days...). At Walmart, I found screw on, swing-away style mirrors for $7 each, universal left or right. I mounted one just below where the stock mirror was and plan to cover the stock mirror's location with a trim plate. The mirror is a little smaller than stock, but works fine and will fold flat against the window if needed. I'll post some pics tomorrow, too dark to take them tonight.

Manufacturer's Championship was who? Wasn't Ford :P Busch can drive the wheels off any car it doesn't matter that  he 'currently' drives a Ford ;) Still he isn't my favorite driver but he was consistent and ummm....what's the word...er...um...LUCKY ;)

Sure there are good Ford parts, 80's F-150 and fullsize bronco rims are a good example! They fit our rigs! LOL!

I just unbolt my mirrors when I think they are at risk. There is only 3 screws holding them on. Several times during the UA I had my mirrors off. On page 52 of the november Issue you can see in the photo the mirror was off. Good thing too cause I was about 1/8 inch away from the paint on the door. :P
