Paddle mirrors on Camaros?

I always suspected there might be, in the countries that require fol-away mirrors, but never seen any until today.

Your on the STS list, don't worry...And the controller doesn't care whether you have standard or LED bulbs. I want LED bulbs, but not at the cost of 6 bulbs.....

Re: Paddle mirrors on Camaros?

The Paddle mirrors were generally a European Thing as suspected above for the collapsible miorror mandate... IIRC As were The special front turn signals in the front that stuck out slightly from a certain year on...

Re: Paddle mirrors on Camaros?

I knew about the fold-away issue on exports. Just this is the first time I've actually SEEN a Camaro with them.

As for the front turn signals....Got any pics? Never even heard of those.
