dalee Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I was lucky enough to find one of these a little while ago. While I was looking I had some advice that you can alter the LHD mirror (readily available from US $145US from memory). But it requires breaking the glass, unscrewing the mount and flipping it to the other side. Glazier should only chg $5-10 to fit a new mirror. This will sit out a little futher from the car than the factory one but unless you have two car beside one another you are going to be hard pressed to notice any difference. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynton Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 That original mirror should have a rubber gasket under the stem for the topside of the door and an under-side door, metal gasket plate, to grip up onto when the nut is tightend up.

Lynton The mirror pictured is actually mine, you are correct Lynton the photo does not show the mounting components, but I have them.

PZG302 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Why??? Because like the door handles you buy a 120Y one at a tenth the price?!?!?!?!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulz Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Are you saying that the 120y mirror is the same as a 240,260? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynton Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I think you need to be prepared to pay around $150+ for an excellent RHD original door mirror ......not a reproduction.....just my 2 cents worth, if you can buy for less than that IMO you have done well depending on the condition of course.

chris240 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 here is my untouched from factory mirror..with the gasket and in mint condition. offers over $500 hehe its going in the vault . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riceburner Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 $500 WTF! Is it brand new? Might just hang onto mine then, it was on car unmarked but removed for a bullet mirror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted February 6, 2010 Administrators Share Posted February 6, 2010 Hmm I might have to get the original mirrors reproduced. I have 2 bullet mirrors but I changed my mind on them. They are nice but I like my zeds original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynton Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I am sure Gavin Strongman, before he sold his silver with orange stripes concourse modified 240Z, he purchased left and right re-manufactured door mirrors from AllZparts NSW? The difference is that the mirror swivel and face are chrome rather than stainless steel the stem obviously is chrome same as originals. Can anyone else verify this in Vic?

Administrators gav240z Posted February 15, 2010 Administrators Share Posted February 15, 2010 just got one off ebay USA thanks for the infor regards Paulz The LHD mirror stalk is different to the RHD stalk. As mentioned in this thread, not sure if it makes a difference for you or not? I think one just went on WeeWee Bay Cheers For RHD or LHD car? I've seen plenty for a LHD car, but never seen 1 for a RHD car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
