side mirrors

I know some of you have replaced your side mirrors. Did oyu find that the mounting bracket was a standard truck size? In lookig for replacemnts I see lots of "universal" sized mirror replacements, with screw in mounts. Ebay has a number listed, just not sure of the "universal" ability for our motorhomes.
Mine are the single stalk mounted with a 4 screw bracket- and they are worn- losing the silvering.

Alan,

These mirrors are of the type that airstream put on newer model motorhomes.

They are available in remote contol and heated models.

I belive the mounting bases will be larger that the ones you have now, so the old holes would be covered by the plate. I would fill the old holes with rivets.

I am sure that if you call Ramco they can tell you base plate size.

Thanks, those are the exact ones I was looking at. I will check it out.

You are going to keep the mounting bracket, right?
Keep me posted, if you find the correct mirror only.

funny I saw those mirror heads somewhere, but have not yet found them again- I would like to replace just the head and keep the bracket as is if I can- will keep looking...

I replaced one, and it is silver or chrome colored but it vibrates as you go down the road, where as the orginal one does not. I bought it at Auto Zone. They only carry one at a time for some reason. about 8 or 10 dollars.
