Chrome "Paddle" mirrors?

[whisperer]

Has anybody seen these? I need new mirrors for my 88 and can only find black.

 

[r1hatman]

Any junk yard I go to has them by the gross.

I don't mean Swing-aways, I'm talking about the standard mirrors that mount with 2 screws a couple of inches below the bottom of the window. Paddle mirrors. All the normal reproduction parts sites have the black ones but I would buy chrome ones if they are out there somewhere.

Yep...the chrome came stock on most rangers....don't see why the wreckers wouldn't have them by the bucket-load...

OK, I've had a bunch of Rangers and have never seen these in chrome so I still think we are talking apples and oranges. The mirrors I am talking about are these:

I think I know the mirrors and if so, LMC truck has them.

OHHHHH.....ok then. Umm...as far as I know, the '93-'97's had them, but I've only ever seen them in black.

The only place I've seen the ones you are looking for were LMC Truck. Planning to get a set for mine at some point.

Black is beautiful....don't put on chrome!!!!!!!

They only come in black as far as I know...I have them on my truck...but they are notorious for flopping...

However, I fixed mine with a thick black zip tie...now they don't flop...

Zip ties are a mans best friend...lol

Definitely here: http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/fr/full.aspx?page=79

Still think you should keep the black....

 

[whisperer]

TastySloth, nope, they're different but probably as close as it gets. I'd rather go with some aftermarket Talbots or something then. Just figured maybe someone made the stock-type in chrome but I guess not......

 

[mp3deviant721]

Those stock type mirrors never came in chrome.

Those stock type mirrors never came in chrome.

They are a different looking style.

I would go chrome and never look back.

 

[mp3deviant721]

I meant the ones he was asking for. I know that 1st gens had chrome mirrors that are a similar style to what he was looking for. But IDK, I've been wrong before.
