I am wondering if there is a good passenger side remote control mirror available for my 69 Dart as well as my 70 GTX. The GTX would not even have to be exactly like factory correct. Any one ever put an E body style mirror on a B body? I kind of like the housing and general look of those mirrors, just wondering if they fit ok on the flat top side of the B body door ok.

There was a rallye mirror offered for 70 B-bodies. I've never heard from anyone if they could see better out of the passenger mirror with those than the chrome ones. I think ChargerVert or Dayclona might know.
I haven't seen someone actually confirm it, but I think it is the same mirror as the 70?-76 A-body rallye mirror. Makes sense to me b ecause the 67-76 std chrom remote mirrors interchance with the 67-70 B-bodies.
A-body rallye mirrors:
Pre 70 A-body with 70-76 Rallye mirrors. Wish I had a better picture and more pictures of them on pre 70 cars.

Can't see anything out of my 68 Barracuda remote style passenger mirror. And others 68 A-bodies have said the same thing.
I heard somewhere the passenger side mirror was for the passenger to be able to see to the rear. After trying to retrofit passenger side mirrors on a couple of 66 Mopars I am starting to believe it.
