Anyone gone from dumbo mirrors to sport ones!??

Oh well, its dumbo for now. No complaints.

Grew up with a kid named Timbo

Later I found out his name was really Tim.  But he had really big ears and .....
Even his parents called him that when he was 19 or 20

Funny.... Especially when you look at the pic of dumbo vile posted.

Those look pretty good and they won't tear up the door skins like the tripod bases.

Well not using the tripod mounts was part of the merge of the two styles. My doors already have the holes from the small tripod mounts above the body line. They have been covered by another owner with either body filler or bondo. Granted it's old and small cracks are forming. So it was either use the tripods and have to cover up the standard mirror holes or just continue using the standard mirror mounts. I think the standard mounts make the tow mirrors look attractive.

So, must we remove the inner door panel to convert to the small sport mirrors?

Those aren't Dumbo mirrors. Once again, thank the internet for perpetuating stupid terms being used. What's your spid label call them? 

[philo_beddoe]

I think the spid calls them "below eyeline mirrors"
As does this merchant:

So what does a true "dumbo" mirror look like?

[VileZambonie]

This is a true Dumbo mirror
