I want to put A body rally style mirrors on my car.
What I REALLY want is a passenger side remote adjust mirror as well.
I had a conversation with someone at Spring Fling who told me some mid 70's C body cars had such a thing and the cable was long enough to wrap around to the driver side for the remote adjustment.
Anyone have expierience with such an animal? Know of a source.....probably C bodyonly forum?
Thanks

Late Bs have a passenger side remote mirror available that is a Rallye-style mirror. Cable reaches down by the radio IIRC. I have one on a '76 Cordoba that I'm going to attempt to install on my '74 Charger.

I pulled a nice pair from a '76 Doba that I parted.

I had a look a while back when I first considered this. Looked to me like if you were willing to break the glass (and I've seen replacement glass offered somewhere, but can't remember where) you could access the screws to remove the base from the housing. What I can't remember is how the adjuster cables hook up to the glass. Only reason I looked was that '71-74 B-bodies use screws down through the base to attach to the door and this '76 has studs on the bottom. I think I'll probably end up leaving as-is.
