Partnumber: 1122 Datsun Roadster 68 - 70 & 240 Z 68 - 73 Right Hand Outside Door Mirror OUT OF PRODUCTION Rare, unattainable until now, correct and proper right hand sweep base with mirror. NOTE: This mirror is less expensive when purchased with the LH mirror as a set. See part #2323 Outside STANDARD REFLECTION RIGHT HAND side door mirror. Yes it mounts on the passenger door and has the correct angled base. Repeat. This mirror mounts on the right hand door. Can be used for left hand or right hand drive 68 - 70 Datsun Roadsters. Can also be used for 70 - 73 left hand or right hand drive 240Z. There is visible parting line from the Zamac mold on the pedestal of the Left hand Nissan mirror and this has been a bone of contention among Z car owners and Roadster owners for years and there is not a damn thing anyone can do about it as Nissan will not and has not changed it having been made aware of the problem by the world populus for years. The problem has become progressively worse in the past 15 years as Nissan as either, allowed the company that makes this mirror to continue to produce the product with this problem or refused to correct the problem by paying the company to service and repair the tooling. When we had this RH mirror made we had to make a decision. Do we make the mirror with the visible parting line like the Nissan LH mirror to match it or do we make it smooth like they were 40 years ago? Since Nissan will eventually be discontinuing this mirror we opted for the smooth look as we have the parts overseas to develop the LH pedestal to start production when Nissan finally dumps this part from their catalog. They probably should as our mirror has better chrome and a more smoothly polished stainless mirror back plate. The shape of our stainless mirror backplate is the same however the edge of the housing is not rolled in as much over the chamfer on the glass as the Nissan mirror and this particular process can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. We accepted this change as being a non issue as when viewed on the car the difference is subtle. |
