I already have 3 point towing mirrors on the truck, but are there suppliers of the top post to be able to atatch a WCM? Canadian Tire sells the replacement rectangular mirror heads but not the mountings, I'd prefer new but if it comes to it I'd sand blast a used set from a wrecking yard(almost 4 hour drive for me, so you understand why used is difficult).

Are you asking if someone makes a attachment mirror to your mirrors like towing mirrors ?
-
no if im right hes asking if they make the top two bars for the mirror to attact to the upright on the trucks door post
-
yes, what I'm after is the top bar, or bars
-
So what your after is mirror brackets somewhat like these?

I bought some new stainless ones at a Bumper to Bumper store. Heated mirrors with amber lights on them as well. Mine don't look exactly like the one in the picture, couldn't find a good picture of what mine look like.
The new brackets can be bought at a few places, may pay less if you happen to find a set in a wrecking yard though.
-
similar in idea, but I was wondering if I could just purchase the top post
-
I think the company that makes that kinda stuff is called "Grote".
I'm pretty sure you can get their stuff at Gregg Distributors in Edmonton. But I couldn't tell you if it would be a whole kit or if you can piece it together.

worse case I'll bend some aluminum bar to spec...
