HINGE MOUNT MIRRORS FOR 25 COUPE
I cannot find "original" mirrors for my T. Dealers have nice looking mirrors for hinge mount but they are labeled for model A. Has anyone used them and what if any modification is required?

Re: HINGE MOUNT MIRRORS FOR 25 COUPE
I was disappointed in what was available and bought this set. I had to grind down the threaded end of the stems to 1/4” and re-thread. The housing of the mirrors are plastic so I painted gloss black and they look metal now. Whole process per mirror was 15 minutes and they look great.

The model A mirrors fit my 27 coupe without any modifications. I'm not sure about the differences between 25 and 27 hinges.

Re: HINGE MOUNT MIRRORS FOR 25 COUPE
I bought a nice set rom Chaffin's several years ago. At that time, they were lefts and rights. Talk to Dave see what he has now. Depending on which side they can be above the hinge or below.
