I have a set of stainless mirrors identical to the ones on the blue truck posted.
I want to say they are aftermarket because of their great condition.

Do the originals have a different back side shape and acorn nuts mounted to the arms? Mine, like the mirrors posted, don't have the acorn nuts.
I will try to get a better photo them later.


Thanks, Sam
Your look original but close up will tell.
Later model DG 4 mirrors are not the same as 69-70? Not sure of the change year but like most things is probably 69-70 series and then 71-2 series. The later arms on bottom 2 points are shorter and the upper mount is just below the glass.
Factory mirror heads are stainless with small round rivets.
