Barney Eaton Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I have looked online and found very little information on the Sports Mirrors used in the '70's and into the '80's. One Buick forum believes the heads were the same (70-72) on all GM products (maybe not Camaro/Firebird) but each division used their own base to get the proper door to mirror location..... bases have a number on them... Example..the Buick reference says #29855 is the left, #29845 is the right. There seems to be very little detailed information....If you have knowledge, maybe we can post it here in one spot for all GM owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_padavano Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 That is correct. The heads were the same but the uprights were different due to differences in the contours of the door skin. Of course, this excepts the 1970 Oldsmobile sport mirrors that were unique to that year and application. These are the 1970 Olds mirrors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Eaton Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 Were the 1970 sports mirrors only used on the Hurst Olds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were the only sport mirror used on the 1970 Olds A-body cars. Olds didn't start using the squared off ones like the rest of GM until the 1971 model year.
