Warning - not a subject for purists.

I have some wobbly flag mirrors the PO put on my 1970 914 and want to swap them out. The stock mirrors are OK, but just look too dated.

I started looking at every car on the road and noticed the 2010-2015 Camaro mirrors had a similar mounting angle. I also like the stealth fighter angularity to their shape - much like the 914. They are also running $30 to $50 new!

They bolt from the inside, so it means removing the inside door panels, but that's not a huge deal.

Thoughts? Anyone else try this or see this yet? Any similar mirrors out there?

"If I were you I would just go buy a Camaro."

Let's see them on your car so we can get this thread really going.

You must have missed the thread with the guy who (STILL!!!) has Mustang mirrors on his 914?

I enjoyed that thread quite a bit - and read it more than once to prepare myself for the flamethrowers I knew would swing in my direction.

I wish I could get by with no mirrors at all, or little cameras even, but they are a necessary detail. In a perfect world I'd have one absolutely pristine stock 914 and another with as much "modern" upgrades as possible.
