Trucks with Elephant Ears Mirrors

I'm debating on switching mirrors but I like the look of the elephant ears, post up your truck if you have them!!

Re: Trucks with Elephant Ears Mirrors

Here you go..

I will be swapping them to the smaller mirrors once paint and body work is done though.

I love them. You can see one of those mirrors laying anywhere and you know just what it came off of.

Re: Trucks with Elephant Ears Mirrors

I wouldnt part with mine. Ive got some small mirrors on other vehicles, but I like being able to see real clearly with the big ones on the truck.

I like the look of these mirrors. Plus you can actually see out of them!

That's the main reason I wouldn't want the base mirrors. They look goodfrom the outside, but they don't look like this from inside..



On a side note about dumbos... Look for mirrors that have a seperate Left and right mirror. The universals (that fit either side) don't fit the door as well. I got mine from LMC as at the time they were the only place that sold SS left and right seperate mirrors. You can also choose if you want a convex mirror or not for the passenger side. I have a regular mirror on my passenger side, as I mainly just use the little round mirrors for changing lanes and such.
