Default C3 Sun Visor Mirror

Does anyone know where I can find a non-lighted sun visor mirror? I'm trying to replace one from my 1978 and I cannot find a matching one anywhere. Only the fancy flip one with the lights is all my searches come back with.

My 1988 Pontiac Fiero has the plain GM mirror on the Passenger sun visor. After purchasing new visors, I was able to transfer the old one to the new visor, it is held on by a plastic pin/plug device. Check Pontiac, Chevrolet, as well as other GM Restoration / Parts Dealers. You can always check eBay and the seller may disclose the vehicle where the mirror was removed from.

You may ask questions on this mirror at the link below, no details about it's size.
Other models used different mirrors on hardtops vs. T-Tops.
The 77 used part number GM 458346 and is secured by a couple lines of adhesive. I used a couple dabs of black sealant when I transferred mine.

Hunt around if this style of mirror works, some I looked at have free shipping offered.

Thanks for the help, I think I found one close enough if not identical!
