yello620 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Mirrors from the 720's work very licely on the 620 also. Thats what mine had when i bought it, and they should be plentiful in the JY. Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 there has got to be a cheaper place to get some just plain ole door mirrors Yes, it's called "the Nissan dealer". I bought a factory Datsun mirror this summer, shipped for less than people are bidding on eBay. Link to comment
motavated Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 They are horribly made pieces of shit! I bought some Taiwan/china 720 repo ones for my 620 and they suck balllllllssssssss!!!!!!!!!! Dont buy them unless they are Nissan. I bought some used junkyard 720 mirrors and well some one whacked one of my mirrors and it broke. They were really good and cool soooooo! I bought these piece of shit from ebay. I really wanted to give that guy a negative.... Dont buy them!!!! Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Nissan dealers sell the replacement mirrored glass inserts that swap into your existing housing replacing the shattered glass. Comes with a brief [too brief] how to. Basically attaches with factory double stick tape to the existing mirror mounting bosses. Don't have to remove the housing, just pop it in. Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Hey thanks for that tip. Should fix the old mirror less expensive than a new housing. Link to comment
Nicholas7620 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 I got my mirrors from a 72 Chevy pick up.:) Link to comment
motavated Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Tight replacment glass for my mirrors! BUT!!!! What I did with my 720 mirrors was that I rebuilt them. Yep! I put new foam in the rear glass and filled it full of crazy glue!!! When I tried removing the broken glass The plastic frame shattered... sucks....:mad: Link to comment
dat620 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 i can get the 84 - 86 720 chrome flag style mirrors for 44.00 each + shipping if any one interested, they are made in us by a company that services all automotive mirrors, i have a set on my 620 show truck , they work good and do not vibrate, i have traveled several hundred miles with them , at legal speed limits, ( and not so legal speeds), pm me if any interset..:) :D Link to comment
kikioreekee Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 i paid the 50 for a rearview mirror, got it, installed it, and after one month there was a defect present on the left. I dont touch it, so i have no idea what happened. i think the glass was so shitty that when i hit a pothole it chipped. if you touch it it is smooth, it broke from the inside. it looks like a tide pool. if i wanted a broken one, i would have kept the one i already had. never again with the overseas shit.

Jester Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I'll second what motivated had to say. They look EXACTLY like the ones I bought for my Hustler. THEY SUCK ASS! You can't tighten them enough to stop them from folding around at about 75-80 Link to comment
