I have a 383 under the hood. Not sure where the mirrors are from, but I need to find out. The molding on the driver mirror has fallen off and I need to get a replacement.

Welcome from Northeast AZ! Nice looking truck! Those mirrors look like the power ones off 91 square body Blazers and Suburbans. Somebody either swapped those onto your truck or swapped the entire doors!

Welcome from California. That's a very yellow truck! AZ87V10 appears to be correct about your mirrors. Without seeing them closer up, they look like the 1 year only (1991) power mirror setup.

It is definately yellow....lol. I never was a fan of yellow until I saw this one. All of my previous vehicles have been black. I will definately look into those mirrors, thanks for the input.

True, but there's also that little factor of keeping it clean lol and scratches, they show like crazy

The mirrors are definitely the 89-91 versions.  The 88-93? fullsize and Astro van heads fit on those also.  The gasket is specific to this bodystyle.
