side mirror covers dont fit ....helpzachzchw 07-12-2006, 06:34 PM So I ordered side mirror covers for my 1997 Bravada...Of course, I got them for a blazer, seeing as how nothing is made for my Olds. This is the normal thing I do when I order accessories, the only other time Ive had trouble is with a brush guard not fitting. Are the side mirrors on a blazer and bravada the same? If not, does anyone know what mirror the bravada is interchangeable with? zachzchw 07-12-2006, 06:48 PM http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b313/zachzchw/bravadamirror.jpg thats my mirror. Ill get a pic of the mirror covers shortly. A search for "blazer oem mirror" and "bravada oem mirror" show the same thing. zachzchw 07-12-2006, 07:14 PM http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b313/zachzchw/mirrorcovers001.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b313/zachzchw/mirrorcovers003.jpg Those are what they sent me, and how they line up on my mirrors. In the following link, look at the second section, left hand side, "2005 s-10 p/u #517" those are what they sent me. The back of the package says: they will fit 95 to current s10 pickups and blazers, sonomas, and jimmys. So WTF is going on? blazee 07-12-2006, 07:18 PM The mirrors changed in 99. Those look more suited to fit the new style. zachzchw 07-12-2006, 07:23 PM The mirrors changed in 99. Those look more suited to fit the new style. Any idea what mirrors are interchangeable with the mirrors I have? muddog321 07-12-2006, 07:39 PM All fit cause all have the same 3 bolt pattern but 98 eariler were weaker design and 99up went to a full style hinge and have metal in the the frame so stronger. Also depends if heated, electric, and auto dimming. zachzchw 07-12-2006, 08:30 PM http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b313/zachzchw/99mirror.jpg This comes up as a 99 and up OEM mirror. So looks like Im screwed. Is there any website to crossreference the stock mirrors on a 97 with other mirrors, so I know which one to get? rental blazer 07-12-2006, 09:54 PM http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b313/zachzchw/99mirror.jpg This comes up as a 99 and up OEM mirror.
