the remote & the manual mirrors are the same size & shape right? if so it doesnt have to be remote, matching the mirror on the leftside is most important, i got one on e-bay that looks correct but the base has a different angle on it making the mirrors edge sit only about 1/4" from the window glass so thats a no-go, so if your are OE mirrors you can let me know what you'll take for one & we'll be in business,tks

Manual and remote mirrors are different. The manual mirror head pivots on a ball mount on its stand. Remote is shrouded inside its head.
Here's the one you need. Group 10.185, p/n 983280, mirror assembly RH outside, matches LH remote mirror. 71-74 all B (88), C (Ninety Eight), E (Toronado).

The remote are expensive if you want nos. Last one if i remember sold for $450. NOS manual will look a little different but IS correct for the car. Those are $150. Best shot is a used one from out west to minimize pitting. Not sure if the same setup was on Buick/ Pontiac. Even good used probably will set you back $150 or so.

I definately have the right side manual but havent looked to see if i have the matching left side manual. Your remote left is certainly more useful unless its broken and then you will have the door panel toggle hanging.

ok i see the difference, my ride wouldnt look right with vastly mismatched mirrors, i did see a pair of remote olds mirrors from a 1980 olds 98 on e-bay with no part number listed with them, dont know if the base on them is tilted at the right angle for a 71 delta, the right side manual mirror i have sits wayyyyy to close to the door window causing the mirror to have to be tilted outside its enclosure just to be aimed towards the rear of the car & i dont wanna risk buying 2 more mirrors like that but do keep me in mind if you run across the mirror i need, thx
