Don't have pics offhand, but the difference is the bend in the arm. I think the early bend is a tighter one, and the later is a slightly larger radius. I could have that switched around, though.
Ah, here you go--a page that discusses and shows the differences: http://p914.com/p914_mirrors_side.htm --DD |

So, was the dividing line at 1974 = "old" and '75-'76 = "new?" Which mirror goes on my '73?

So the right side mirror was an option! You just saved me a few hundred $$ and a few pounds of drag. I like that single mirror look. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Thx for posting that, Dave.
