1987 2500 suburban.

I just had a minor fender bender today. The driver side mirror was messed up pretty bad. The posts for it seem to be fine.
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to get it replaced. I looked up replacement mirrors and they all seem to be what’s called “low mount” which is not what I have.

Picture attached is the style of mirror I have.

You said your posts are fine, so I thought you would at least be able to get the new mirror heads and mounting arm.

Right, that’s what I was potentially thinking. Seeing as how this is possibly going through insurance I figured they’d try to find the whole thing. Also I hit a traffic cone with the right one and bent one of the arms. So I was going to try to have a shop order 2 and I pay for one myself.

I see 4 post brackets everywhere, and the shorter 3 post brackets online, but nothing like the super long 3 arm brackets you have.

PM me. I am restoring my 1987 GMC V3500 and it had those mirrors. I am replacing them with the "normal" style mirrors. I can sell you my pair.

The left mirror glass is broken but otherwise they are good to go. PM me if interested.

Haven't PM'd anyone on here before, so I think I did it right.
