Hello, my side mirrors are in need of new glass and liners, what holds the glass in place. I know 914 Rubber sells the glass but is there a source for the liners? Is there a technique for removing and reusing the original liners without damage?
Thanks in advance.
Jack

Mark said he is making them this spring.
I feel your pain, I need 26 of them.
Most of mine have disintegrated.

Mark, can you make them now? I will take four pre-72 and six newer. Can you also make the passenger mirror... I know you can have them made with the right optics but it’s a pain.

We are actually in the process of doing these. They have been drawn up, and we are starting tooling. It will require some machine time, we have a few other projects scheduled in.

We are actively working on over 25 projects as I write this. We do some contract manufacturing as well as what we do here. Unfortunately, it's not as simple as just bumping it up. I can tell you we are 6 months in on these and the tooling will be started in the next 30 days. We typically don't announce projects until they are eminent so you don't have the "wait" time.
