How many you got, overall condition (completeness, dents, pits) Glass and wiring not important. Having a mounting stem is important.

I have one I want restored. How much do you charge for this service?

I think I have 4 or 5 cores not sure how many are map light mirrors though. Maybe I can send you what I have and can send me one back and keep the rest?

I actually have a repro non map light mirror with excellent glass and rubber trim. How hard would it be to swap the new parts into the old mirror? I tried to get the old one off and it seems to be glued. I don't want to break the new glass when I remove it. Maybe heat?

Rearview Mirror

The Taiwan repo mirror shares no similar shape or component with a GM Guide mirror. Metal and glass are different.


Call me at 203-272-7103 over the weekend to discuss details-- thanks!

As an endorsement for Paul (ros6872), I have bought many used parts from him to complete my resto. He has a lot of good stuff and reasonable.

Also, he restored my map light mirror on my 70 and it looks brand new. I cant remember price, but it was reasonable. I am handy and looked at doing it myself and getting mirror resilvered and buffing housing, but it was a no brainer to have Paul do it. Very happy with results.

Thanks, Pete W
