Post by: wisemanz28 on February 24, 2015, 09:04:19 PM: Does anyone know what the correct part number for a late September Camaro drivers side door mirror?

Post by: 1968RSZ28 on February 25, 2015, 09:26:57 PM: My 1969 P&A list part number 3914753. This is the standard, non-remote, left outside mirror.

My 1969 P&A list part number 3914753.
So does the 69 AIM, UPC1 Sheet C2.

3874242 is the casting number for the base. It's not the part number for the mirror itself.

Post by: BULLITT65 on May 25, 2017, 03:08:32 PM: OK so I found a mirror that had that casting and is from 68. Would that be incorrect for my early (10B) 69 camaro?

No way to know. That base was used on other mirrors as well, not just the Camaro. What's the date code etched on the glass?

Post by: bertfam on May 25, 2017, 03:39:02 PM: DMI8 is 1968, so you're good so far. I'm assuming it's a rectangular mirror?

Post by: bertfam on May 25, 2017, 04:30:45 PM: Boy, that one's got a heck of a parting line!!! See if he can get you a high resolution picture of the date code. It's REALLY hard, but if he's got a good camera he should be able to.

Post by: BULLITT65 on May 25, 2017, 05:18:48 PM: Well if it's the correct mirror, does it matter what number precedes the "DMI8"?
I just want it to be prior to October right?
Title: Re: 1969 camaro door mirror
Post by: bertfam on May 25, 2017, 06:04:56 PM: Yes, an October date, but these things were made by the gazillions, so only a little before your build date. In reality, it should be dated 10-DMI-8 to be most correct. 9-DMI-8 would be okay, but anything before that would be really stretching it.

Post by: BULLITT65 on May 25, 2017, 06:08:23 PM: Good to know. Most components have a bigger window.
That is spot on with my red 69. I think the mirror is dated 1 month prior.
Thanks Ed
