Windshield Rear View Mirror

I got a 87 Camaro over the summer and for some reason one of the previous owners removed the windshield rear view mirror, at the time it didn't bother me much but now i'm looking to get one.
Are they specific to camaros of that generation or did GM use the same for any other models, there isn't much in part cars around here for stuff like that.
I still have the metal clip on the windshield. I could get any mirror and fit it there, but I want to keep it model/time period correct as much as possible.
Thanks for any help.

I only used it to show you,you can still get these from Hawks for a decent price. Most likely is wired to the dome light

Re: Windshield Rear View Mirror

I purchased a nice mirror from Hawk's for my '87 Monte SS. It only has one map light switch, however. My '89 Camaro's rearview mirror has two map switches...was it year dependent? I'd like to get one like the Camaro for my '77 Olds Cutlass Supreme.

Re: Windshield Rear View Mirror

Hawk's is out of stock for the 3rd gen mirrors, they only have a reproduction without map lights available at a higher cost.
I will try and find one local to me or get lucky with someone parting out a 3rd gen on the forums.
