Default 68 Firebird mirrors?

Anybody try these? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

I have an aftermarket mirror already and it is a POS. Socket shot, pitted( only see rain once and it was a real light drizzle) and stored in a heated shop over winter. Don't want to error again and I NEED to add a passenger mirror. Can't drive without 1 anymore???? Alan

I thought the 68 mirrors are round and the 69's used the ones you linked to.

Mirrors switched from round to rectangle shaped mid production year for the 68's

Lightbulb PY Mirrors

Why not ask if ayone likes the PY mirrors, like RFD18 1968-69 RH rectangular, std .... $29.00 or if they have found better out there. This would give our host a crack at the business, every little bit adds up.

Year One sells NOS mirrors. They are the rectangular shaped style that was used later in the '68 model year. I got tired of dealing with the POS repro that would self adjust itself at 30 MPH.
