sexier outside mirrors (Page 1/5)
kgoodyear NOV 29, 12:37 PM
I am looking to upgrade my mirrors on my 87 gt to a more up-to-date and sexy style. I'm looking for running lights, blinker and electric mirrors on the new version. I found out the hard way they have to be mounted on the door.

The beauty of a solution lies in its simplicity

Sexy mirrors? Dunno how you could mount them on a Fiero. Those 6” square mirrors that used to be on van/truck doors?

I think the Fiero mirrors are about as good looking as they get. You could customize and add a blinker to it.

Mine look sexy enough, especially when I look into them.

On a serious note, I am awfully tempted to retrofit gen 5 Camaro mirrors onto my 86 GT. An angled spacer seems like it should work while doubling as the "gasket".

My car has RX 8 mirrors on it and I think they look pretty nice. It is not an easy swap to do but they are well worth the work if you ask me.

You can't talk about it without showing off pictures as well or else it did not happen.

Good point, I also love to post pics of the car. I did crop this one, since it has been posted already to show the mirror better. Here you go.

I am soooo glad you posted the picture! THAT IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. THIS IS WHAT I WANT!!!! Can you maybe point me in a direction. I'm in the process of wiring the car and have to make provisions for the mirrors.

Funny, I've thought about doing this too.

Have you had a chance to hold one up to your Fiero?

Maybe we could photoshop selected door mounted mirrors & see what looks the most exotic.

I believe the side mirrors should remain stand alone door mounted as part of Fiero tradition.

The original ones was from the parts bins also used for Firebird, Camaro & Corvette. We want the Fiero to stand out with its own identity.
