noted when i was cleaning a few of them.

1. mirror housing piece is longer than the other.
2. mirror is longer.
3. 90* bends differ. one is curved and the other has a 'mitered' corner look.
4. larger one has roman numeral 3 and TP-RT210 on the rear side other has none.

would be the smaller of the 2 be earlier car specific. what would the change year be?

I believe the mitered look is the early, rounder is late. I don't know the cutoff between the two.

The OEM mirror on my '70 has the "mitered" design, so that seems correct.

Don't think all of the later/non-mitered ones had the numbering on them.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
