Re: are these camaro mirrors

but maybe on some of the earlier ones, if you got manual mirrors it came with those. mine is a 90 & i know that the 82's -84's have diffrent styling packages than the 90.

if mean those mirrors, its because in europe, the stock pirrors aren't allwed because they are solid on the doors and can't clap inwards.
for that reason over here we got the ugly square mirrors. but a lot of people who have those buy the original mirros and put them back on the car.

some other birds with the square mirrors.

Re: are these camaro mirrors

Those aren't the stock GM paddle-style mirrors that went on over-seas cars. They look like aftermarket versions or off of another car. Granted that fold-in mirrors did come on some third gens, those are not the factory correct ones.
