Sniper Posted October 27, 2019 Report Posted October 27, 2019 Went from a peep mirror to a swan neck and it didn't even cost $100 new. Quote

Speaking of cowl trim. I recently saw the left & right P15 cowl trim online for $99 and change. They were both battered pieces of crud. I'm not sure if the seller was using the price as a place saver to keep the listing active while dealing with something, or if they thought they had struck gold. I used to find better ones lying on the ground where they fell after the mounting clip rusted out:) Edited October 27, 2019 by _shel_ny remove source Quote

I have a few sets of these.....per application the mounting differs.....you can mount these to the trim if you wish....but I do recommend a plinth or filler of some sort....the anti rotational stud makes these very versatile.

Vin's 49 Plymouth Posted October 28, 2019 Report Posted October 28, 2019 Are these the ones that are 1700.00? https://www.ebay.com/itm/1946-1947-1948-Chrysler-Desoto-Dodge-Plymouth-swan-neck-mirrors-2-Need-work/274063744900?hash=item3fcf78df84:g:KXkAAOSwThNdr16Y Quote
mlozier76 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Posted October 30, 2019 I guess nevermind on that. I don't think I'm into my car total for that much! I love my car, but I do all the repairs on the inexpensive. Thanks though. Quote
