Towing mirrors

[big-blue]

What are you folks doing for towing mirrors?
I am pretty picky on how they should look but haven't found anything worth while. Right now my option is replace the stock ones with I guess was the stock towing mirrors of that time opposed to anything that "attaches" to the existing.
I know it's one of those 'function before beauty', but I don't want it to look like crap either.

I got my new popup and definitely need something. Back window is completely useless now.

Sounds like we were/are looking for similar mirrors. My engine swap got in the way but they are still somewhere on my list.

That is exactly what I am looking for. I just called my local Fleet Pride location, and got two on order. They were $53 each, plus tax and freight from the distributor (Indiana, he said). I should have them Friday.
Thanks mckustomfab!

Mirrors came in. Total price was $119 which included their freight and tax.

They were a breeze to install and look great. A total of 8" of extension - wow. While I haven't towed yet (Saturday I will), sitting in the seat I can already tell a huge difference. I have them right now at 3 or so inches.

Here are the pics. I'll give my drive report Saturday afternoon. You will see below the old vs new; on the old I had the 2" concave sticky mirror.

Do those telescope in and out so you can adjust to where you need them?

Yes sir. They'll extend out 8" from the stock length. Right now I have it at 3".
Nice quality too.

Looks a lot nicer than the cheesy black plastic late model ones I have seen tacked on.
