warriorcomeoutnplay Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 So I bought a 91 Warrior. Love this thing to death, however there was a huge blind-spot on the passenger side. Basically when merging into a road via a Yield sign, I could not see traffic approaching. It was awful and needed to be addressed. Here is the weird part. Only the driver side has a convex mirror on the lower portion. So there are 4 mirrors, all flat except the driver side bottom mirror. After looking at some threads on here it appears they are factory originals, or at least the lower mirrors are. I'm trying to figure out why it was a flat mirror on passenger side. I have purchased a convex mirror but I'm not sure I like it. I may restore the original one and just try adjusting it so the face is not parrallel to the main/flat mirror. Has anyone seen a mirror configuration like this? Perhaps 1 original mirror was replaced with a similar but not original mirror? Thoughts?

jjrbus Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 This may be the mirror you need, if it looks right, wait for a 2nd opinion before ordering. Or you could add a larger or combo mirror. https://www.millsupply.com/velvac-white-plastic-mirror-head-convex-glass-wi-704177.php?p=6677 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunkaman Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I believe your last sentence is most likely what occurred. to my knowledge, all original mirror configurations had the flat face mirror on top of the convex mirror on each side. my 92 winnnie warrior has this set up. you can still purchase the exact replacement mirrors , I believe from "velvac", or something similar. I found them on line when I was considering replacing them due to their cosmetic appearance. the housing was faded and unattractive, but I just sanded and painted the housings to my satisfaction. joe from dover.

Maineah Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Yeah the right side is the one that should be convex (unless your in England) NAPA has them in chrome or white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warriorcomeoutnplay Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 The mirror from Mill Supply looks to be what I need. I may order it but it burns me to pay $12-$16 in shipping for a $16 plastic thing that doesn't weigh much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Try Napa, they use to stock the mirrors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Shipping free at Amazon. Just to make sure you have square mirrors right. https://www.amazon.com/Velvac-704095-Stainless-Convex-Mirror/dp/B002HVH8NC Looking at Mill Supply shipping costs. Looks like it would be less than 10 dollars. Cheaper total than Amazon. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
