DD8 Auto dimming mirror

Hello, I'm interested in any auto dimming mirrors from any 1986-1987 Camaro/Firebird. These are the Gen. 1, electro-mechanical powered mirrors by Gentex. It does not matter if they are working or not working, but please describe the condition of the mirror, parts missing, broken pieces, etc. Thank you for your time.

Re: DD8 Auto dimming mirror

How much are you asking for all of them? How much for each one? Also, were these off from a thirdgen, or from another GM vehicle (Buick, Cadillac, Pontiac Fiero, etc.)?

Re: DD8 Auto dimming mirror

Some were from 3rd gens and the others from different gm vehicles of that same era.If you notice a few have rectangular lenses and the others have curved ends.Id say maybe 20-25 dollars each plus shipping.If you want quantity I would be willing to discount the price although I might want to keep 1 or 2 for myself

Re: DD8 Auto dimming mirror

How much for four of the auto dimmings mirrors? I would like three of the curved slim ones for the thirdgen, and probably the rectangular mirror for the early 1986 Camaro/Firebird cars. I noticed the other curved mirrors are not as slim as the thirdgen mirror types, the mirror height is slightly longer. Again thanks for your inquiry and pictures.

Re: DD8 Auto dimming mirror

Well for right now, I'll probably acquire only two from you. That would be one mirror that is slim curved (the one photographed in the forefront on the second picuture) , and the other the rectangular early 1986 style (Photograhped at the far back on the second picutre). Do you know if that one came from a thirdgen? So how's about $40 + shipping to 78045 with paypal? That way later we can do buisness again on other mirrors that you're willing to sell. Again, thanks for your time.
