Default side mirror/mirror!?

which ones are you guys buying???? i can't seem to find any that fit the side mirrors. i picked up a 2 1/2" ones at walmart and the drivers side fits but the passenger side doesn't. guess they only make them for the left mirror!?!?!? i had a chance to go to pepboys and checkers and they don't carry any that fit either... wtf!?

i'm trying to mount them on the lower left corner (drivers side) and the lower right corner (passengers side) do they have to be mounted on the top corners like the diesels!? i might just be retarded...

The HD mirrors are completely different. You can see them on the Dodge website.

I picked up little round ones... you can rotate them to see different angles. There a little small... I mainly just got them so I could see where my rear tires were...

i was going to go round but they don't look right with the square mirror design. no offense or anything... thats all i want them for is to see the tires anyways so i might just have to go the same route. thanx for the pic!!!

I hear ya on the round/square mirror thing! Square would look more "in place", but I couldnt find any that matched up the corners on the dodge mirrors.

I ended up with round spot mirrors as well. I had to have something after having the tow mirrors on my 2500.
They look stupid but, they are functional.

At autozone they make a small 1" x 2" restangle that fits nicely on the mirror
