Where’s the warehouse? I’ll eventually need one but you’ll have cornered the market by then.

I’m waiting on some inner spacers from 914rubber. Mark said it will be a couple months. While the outer trim rings seem to hold up great, the white inners, especially the early ones, turn into dust. It’s also surprising how many decent mirrors you need to make one good one.
Problems:
Someone used a screwdriver to pry off the trim ring and cracks the edge
Someone tries to adjust the mirror when it’s corroded tight and the inner washer makes a bulge in the stainless cover.
Rock strikes to the stainless cover.
The large triangular washer inside the mirror is cracked or broken in half
The chrome is chipping or corroding on the arm.

It can take two or three mirrors to make a good one. The ones that won’t work for a restoration (dented backings, peeling chrome, etc) I will probably powdercoat in black.

So once I get some inner spacers I will build up a couple to offer up.

Mark,

Whatever you do, don't throw out the ones with rock dent in the stainless cover. That can be metal worked out and polished. Can be made nearly undetectable in most cases.

I agree completely with you on how many things can go wrong with them and how many it might take to make a good one.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Nothing is getting thrown out. Some I will redo. Some I will set aside to have redone by someone with more skill than myself.
I would say to never use tools to remove the trim ring, only your fingers and never try to turn a mirror that is stuck. It needs to be lubed and then it will turn freely.
