RE: Day/Night Mirror


>>I suppose if a Squareback at somepoint got a mirror that first
appeared on a Notch/Fastback, then it wouldpreserve its 311 part
number.<<

Not so in this case. The early Squarebacks had a different mirror and it
had a 361 number. I have one, the number's cast in the mirror base.

>>no one has mentioned tinted mirrors (I've never seen such a thing) I
think "anti--
dazzle" means day/night.<<

Some Type 3 Ghia mirrors had an anti-glare tint and I was speculating
(wrongly, it turns out). I think you're absolutely right: the parts list
is listing newer model mirrors as replacements for older mirrors. Just
proves that the parts list isn't always the final word.

>>Up to and including 65 we had brushed aluminum finish mirrors held in
place
with screws.<<

They were polished aluminum, not brushed.
