I was thinking of putting 78 style sport mirrors on my 75 instead of getting the chrome ones. You can find GM sport mirrors on ebay, but I'm worried about the angle where it attaches to the door. I seem to remember that some were the same, but the spacer had a different angle. Does anyone know how to tell what I should look for? I don't want to get something that droops off the door.

If this doesn't work, I'm going with the chrome ones. Any comments on those? Thanks!

I entertained the idea of sport mirrors also when I was getting mine painted. I wound up going with the chrome original style. They were easier to obtain and I didn't have to have them painted. The chrome mirrors stick out and the body colored mirrors would have blended in. One thing about it though, you can always go back later and add the sport mirrors if you don't like the chrome ones.

Yeah, I'm kinda going in that direction too. The sport mirrors are pretty hard to find.

While I think the sport mirrors look great, they don't give you the view to the rear the chrome mirrors do. My '78 has the sport mirrors and my '69 has the chrome so I experience the difference. The sport mirrors are closer to the body and don't have the adjustments the chrome ones do.

Just my opinion and something for you to consider.

Thanks, I have decided to stay with the chrome and get two new ones - one for the drivers door and one for the passanger door. Now that I've been looking at this feature, I have to say I like the chrome ones better.
