Thinking about mirror options, I searched but I could find no images of anyone using the early stainless 911 mirrors on the 914 ?
They are slightly larger & dont look too far off the stock 914 mirror.
Is it that the mounting is just too difficult?

Early 911s' use a circular Durant mirror that came in two sizes, do you mean the flag mirrors from a little later?

Installation should be just as simple as stock.

Yes I wasnt going back that far. Your link is a example of those I was wondering about.

Bolt holes are a different size. Screw in through lip in door if I remember correctly.

Rich,

They are on my car, the one I bought from @http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=7414 . There is a picture in this thread:

Go to post #15. I really like the look. Not sure about how easy to mount as I didn't put them on. Maybe Bob has some input?

^^^ Not surprising that those like pretty damn good.

I would think one could fab an adapter out of stainless. Unless the mirrors carry un removable studs.
