Default Visor Mirror

I've tried about 9 different shops and can't find the mirror that goes into the RH visor. Didn't know it was missing when I purchased the car.. Not that it would have made any difference but I found it missing when I took off the tops for the first time. Looks really bad with them holes showing. Any leads on where some of you found hard to find parts?

As always.. thanks!

Try Eckler's. They have a very large inventory.

You didn't mention the year, but myself and others on the forum have all mentioned these things are impossible to find. One person said he saw one on E-bay that went for over $200.

None of the catalog stores have them. I had a list of about 10 salvage yards and after contacted all of them a couple time, I gave up.

I'm going to try my local junk yard to see if I can find a replacement. I highly doubt they were only used in Corvettes. Another member said he used one from a C4.

Rare as hens teeth. I don't understand why someone doesn't make them. The 84 mirror idea sounds like a good one. Also removing it makes sense too. After all, how often is it used?
