    question: which one for a 1970?

    hello all,
    if you would kinly help and clarify which (if any) mirror would be original to a 70S. the mirror on the left came from my 71E and the mirror on the right is smaller in diameter and without the is flush (ie. without mirror inset). i have a big square post 73 mirror on my 70s now and need to replace it with a correct one.

    thanks in advance as always for your input.
    regards, tom

    If you still have that broken mirror from your 71E, you can easily fix that. The black ring pops out (use something like a strong tooth pick), a replacement glass costs about $3. Glue the old rubber seal to it (which is on your old glass) and you are all set.

    thanks,
    the body of the 'correct' mirror is all dinged up. i think it may be beyond repair, also its pretty well rusted inside. thanks.
