Old Fashioned SS Mirrors

[hammersley]

Were these stopped because of aerodynamics? Are there heated ones available for us "Old Timers"?

I gotta pair the kind with four bolts on the outside door panel not heated in great shape if ya need some you can have them for free just pay shipping

I'Ve seen alot of 2000 duallys that have those mirrors also known as Westcoast mirors. One of the first mods I did to my truck was to replace them with the tow mirrors and then I did the 3rd generation Electric/heat conversion.

The problem with the westcoast mirrors are that if you hit something with them you will do major damage to your door because they have no flip in feature. Mine also vibrated alot and was hard to see anything .

The west coast mirrors you can get heated and powered movement. You can also get built in blind spot mirrors on them.



The smaller mirrors like the old Ram Chargers had can be had heated also but no built in blind spot mirrors.



Like the other guy stated. If mounted properly and you hit something with them. They can buckle/tear a door skin pretty bad.
