I'm not sure if u're looking for a period correct Packard approved accessory mirror or just need a good mirror of acceptable asthetics for the car and for driveability.

Thanks PackardV8 for your time and thoughts. I feel obliged to stay within the bounds of authenticity, thus the hingepin mirror seems the best solution for me, though DAMN pricey (about $465 from Jay Fisher). The doors on my car are steel skinned but wood framed and have no lip to which one of those peep mirrors could be mounted, not that I'd do so anyway as long as there was an alternative.

But in posting this I also thought folks would like a look at those unique and rare headlight-mounted mirrors on the LeBaron phaeton.
