Bri-Guy-GA Posted June 8, 2007 Report Posted June 8, 2007 Does anyone know if the drivers side mirror is the same for the GP's? I broke mine off on a trash can and need one. My GP is a 95. Quote
Crazy K Posted June 8, 2007 Report Posted June 8, 2007 well... all gen 1 W-bodies can theoretically swap for that mirror, except for the CS.... (they use the same housing) but.. being a 95, you probably have an electric mirror with a plastic shell. Get one off or a 92-96 regals or GP, if you want to stay stock looking. if it's manual, make sure the cable length is correct. Quote
Bri-Guy-GA Posted June 8, 2007 Author Report Posted June 8, 2007 Yea its electric and plastic, which is why it broke right off. I saw a mostly mint 92 GTP in the PAP in my color that I will go and get this weekend. Thanks. Quote
Crazy K Posted June 8, 2007 Report Posted June 8, 2007 Yea its electric and plastic, which is why it broke right off. be glad it is plastic. I've seen doors smashed beyond repair and windows busted by metal mirrors. nothing like getting a early morning spray of powdered safety glass! On my verts, they are all getting plastic mirrors, because the doors are virtually irreplaceable. Quote
Bri-Guy-GA Posted June 11, 2007 Author Report Posted June 11, 2007 Got the new mirror. Turns out the 92 GTP had metal ones. I didn't want to deal with paint so I went and got it. Slipped right in and works better than my old one. Turns out the tilt up/down motor on the old one was starting to go. Now the mirror works perfect. If I find another white GP with plastic I will get one, but I couldn't complain for $18 I got the mirror, power antenna and luggage net in the back, plus a nice free supply of assorted fasteners for my loose inner fender liners. A good day in my opinion. Quote
CSI_MuNkY Posted June 11, 2007 Report Posted June 11, 2007 $18 for all that? damn I feel like I get ripped off every time I go to the wreckers now Plastic mirror here runs $45 to start.... when it comes time to replace my drivers side mirror (its cracked) I'll be buying one from evil bay.

Bri-Guy-GA Posted June 11, 2007 Author Report Posted June 11, 2007 $45 damn you guys up there are getting ripped. I think the mirror was only $6 and the antenna was $9. What color you looking for? I might be able to find it and save you $$ even with shipping. Quote

Jamie I got a set of plastic mirrors of the "evil Bay" for like $15, $45 sounds kind of extreme My brother had to replace my moms Grand Am mirror... to the tune of $250 $45 damn you guys up there are getting ripped. I think the mirror was only $6 and the antenna was $9. What color you looking for? I might be able to find it and save you $$ even with shipping. Red plastic and power, if you see one let me know! I might just go for that! Thanx! Jamie Quote
Bri-Guy-GA Posted June 12, 2007 Author Report Posted June 12, 2007 $250. Damn. Grand Am's are a dime a dozen in the PAP here. I will keep my eyes open for a red plastic power mirror next time I am there. Drivers side correct? Quote
CSI_MuNkY Posted June 12, 2007 Report Posted June 12, 2007 Wel the car was weeks old when he backed it out of the garage and knocked the mirror off on my Dads 71 Nova. Being that it was so new the parrents wanted a new one. The only PAP in that area has nothing to choose from. Jamie Quote
