Welcome to the site! Unfourtunatly they didn't make a passengerside that matches this mirror. In 1971 you could get a set of sport mirrors that are painted the color of the body. Or a set of chrome mirrors that you have to roll down the window and manually adjust. John

Welcome.

Fusicks has a real nice right side reproduction outside mirror.

Olds didn't offer a right side remote mirror like John said, if that's what you're looking for.
The factory passenger's side mirror doesn't match the remote mirror exactly, being a regular style mirror, but it does have the same clamshell styling and it is the matching mirror for the remote type, I have both types on my Vista Cruiser.
It mounts the same as the left mirror with the keyholes but the front mounting hole is a little smaller because it doesn't need room for a remote cable like the left side does if it has the option.
You need to buy or make a brace that doubles up the thickness of the sheet metal under the mirror inside of the door or the mirror will dimple the sheet metal because the steel is too thin to support it.
I made one with some sheet metal and glued it in with body panel adhesive, works fine, strong like bull.
