Re: 1974 C20 Soon to become a project...

I got the 1990 electric mirrors today. Had to tighten up some screws and now the bodies are nice and tight.

The drivers glass need to be replaced at some point and I found new glass for $22, so I don't suspect it will be too difficult. The passenger side didn't have the warning though, so the reflection is going to be the same as the normal drivers side.

The passenger side has that warning about objects being closer. The glass is in good shape but the very bottom lip is starting to show some loss of the silver backing, so I hope I can find a new one with the same image characteristics.

The control knob is a simple R-L switch and a joy stick, so I will need to get creative as to the mounting. After we test the wiring, if we find that the joy stick toast, and I can't find any reasonable replacement, the mirrors work really well manually.
