Re: [T3] '67 Mirrors

["Everett Barnes" <everettb@thesamba.com>]

<x-flowed>>These OG VW mirrors came off my 67 Squareback and a 67 Fastback parts car. The outers will work on Square, Fasty or Notch, but the inside mirror came off the Fasty and is shorter than the Squareback version.

Is which part true? 

Those side mirrors are identical to the originals that were on my '67 
Squareback, with the exception being that larger visible seal around the 
driver's side mirror glass.  I have seen mirrors with that seal though, 
although I am not sure why.  Maybe a dealer replacement?  Or maybe because 
they are tinted? 

The interior mirror "stalks" are longer for the Squareback due to the body 
style and lower position of the rear window. 

A '67 rear view mirror would have a chrome stalk with a black plastic-backed 
mirror.  That is a '66 rear view mirror.
