Anyone have the side sport mirrors part numbers??Im trying to figure out what applications fit, Ive got a 75 2 door.Thanks Mark
Hi Mark, I believe mine are "D4D#####"s . I would expect that there are some out there that are "D0D"s or "D1D"s if they started putting sports mirrors on in 70 or 71. I doubt that they changed the casting for the later cars after 74, but if they did, the number would be "D5B ...". I posted a chart that I grabbed from a Mustang site, and it is in the Parts Interchange section here. Best listing I have seen to quickly decode casting numbers ... http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=42973 BTW, if the numbers show that they are for any other model, they probably won't sit right. Seems like the bases are all different angles. I don't know if anyone has successfully used mirrors from other models. Good Luck.
No other sport mirror bases are identical to the Maverick/Comet ones. The part numbers on the bases begin D0DB. They are the same from 70-77. The bullet heads are the same as some Mustang and other Ford applications, but not the bases. Not to say that you couldn't use a mirror from another application, but if you want it to be a Maverick/Comet application with a correct base, it has to be from a Maverick or Comet...
Chuck is 100% correct there. Curiousity got the best of me and I had to pop one off the car and have a look. The gasket also is a "D0D...". My mirrors came off of a '74 and that is my confusion started ...
