Default Side View Mirror

Original Owner
1969 corvette L46

I would like to replace my left side view mirror assembly
Chrome is bumpy and the mirror is slightly damaged.... so I would like an exact duplication of this article including a new dated mirror ("9-DMI-8")
AIM part number is 3914529
Where do I go to purchase a proper new rear view mirror assembly which has a date coded mirror?

Thanks for your help on this

Paragon Corvette, Corvette Central, or really any of the major suppliers can get you a proper date coded mirror as long as you give them the build date of your car. Pretty sure it is less than $100.

You can also find nice originals around, although you may need to just then replace the mirror glass for the proper dating.

Make sure you specify small head mirror though I think they should know that for a 69.
