You would more than likely have to check a junk yard.

There are a ton of 80's GM cars that use the same mirror. Here are some:

82-92 Camaro
82-92 Firebird
84-96 Corvette
Some 86-88 Monte Carlos
84-88 Fiero

Plus if you check the classifieds, there are a lot of guys parting out thirdgens, and I'm sure you'll have no problem finding somebody that's got the mirror you need.

Actually, come to think of it, I've got a spare one in stock. It's one with manual adjustment (not a power mirror). $20 plus shipping if you want it.

Manual adjust, im going to the junk yard on wednesday so if i dont have any luck ill prolly buy from one of you guys, but first i have a question. How do you take the mirrors off? I was looking at the right hand mirror just to plan on what tools i would need but i didnt see any bolts. Do you need to pop off the actuall mirror glass or something? Thanks

pull off the door panel and you'll see 2 bolts holding it to the outer door skin.
