Re: 87 GTA mirrors

Re: 87 GTA mirrors
Definately Paddle Mirrors.
If you want more info than you ever thought existed, got to http://www.gtasourcepage.com & look around there.
There is even a story of the GTAs from the "father" of the GTA, Lou Wassel, on there.

Re: 87 GTA mirrors
Paddle mirrors were discontinued on US GTA about halfway through the productio year, when the GTAs started getting the standard aero mirror.
On Exports, they were pretty standard fare, as their fold-away ability was required in many other countries, due to smaller/narrower streets. In fact, all the way through 92, the paddle mirrors were required in those countries.
