Show me your side view mirrors

Just about every year truck has cool aftermarket period correct side view mirrors. I haven't seen them for our year trucks - 55.2-59. Maybe I am missing something.

What are you guys using? Pics, please.

Re: Show me your side view mirrors

cuz the stock mirror arms with round mirrors are probably the coolest thing on our trucks?

i did reman the drivers side mirror to move it out a couple inches to see around my wider than stock spare
polished 304 stainless, looks better than chrome

Re: Show me your side view mirrors

I'm gonna be using my truck everyday (if I ever get it finished before I get too old to drive, lol) so I will use a newer style mirror that folds in and then fab a base for it that fits the door. I want a mirror big enough to see those drivers that lurk in your blind spot and also wanna see my boat or whatever I'm towing behind me.

Re: Show me your side view mirrors

My TRUK has the big window, there is no blind spot
I can turn my head and see pretty much everything on either side
The stock mirrors are sufficient enough for me
