here are the notes I took before putting stuff back away:
dates observed that appear to not be removable from mirror housing:
12-DMI-9
2-DMI-0 (x2)
dates where mirror removable from housing:
3-DMI-1
6-DMI-1
One of the things I was chasing down for quite some time are early dated mirrors;.
As a side note, the drivers side door that was on my car when I got it (1995) was originally from a white car;
While looking at the mirrors yesterday, I realized that the drivers side mirror was also originally white, so that means this mirror was swapped over with the door onto my car (before 1985);
This “white” mirror is dated 12-DMI-9 - which means the mirror was manufactured in December 1969.
Come to think of it, the suggested build date of the YZ engine would align with this mirror - I’d bet the door and engine are from the same donor car!
