I wish I could find an original driver’s side mirror, but there are none to be had just yet, so a better set of peeps are needed. After searching quite a bit, I found a set of 4″ round, long arm, stainless peep mirrors on eBay for a very reasonable price. With the bend in the arm, they work perfect for both the driver’s side as well as the passenger side.
