Default Correct rearview mirror

Could someone show me a picture of the correct R and L rearview mirrors for a 31 CCPU

There is no such thing as a correct R/S mirror. If you want something close (-i.e.: NOT fine-point), then what we used on this AA is what you likely want.

What about the review mirror in the center of the windshield on a 29 Phaeton? I know mine is not correct but I do not know what the correct one looks like.

All “correct” mirrors are detailed in the JS

There was no RH mirror on a LHD truck, only LH.

I found a RH tail light bracket for my ‘29 Tudor with Model A parts guy in NZ. Look for MAFCA clubs in countries that drive on the right side of the road and contact one or all of those clubs to ask for assistance in finding a RH mirror for your truck.

I have been searching the forum for info on how to repair a loose outside rearview mirror on my 1930 CCPU? Not sure how one tightens the 'grip on the ball'?

A lot of mirrors have 3 screws on the back, try tightening them a little.
