I could use a rearview mirror (yes, the one above the dash that mounts onto the two L-shaped metal brackets). For some unknown reason, the mirror in my coach is an automotive type that's glued (badly) to the windshield, which will be replaced in the not too distant future. Plus, I'm just waiting for it to fall off. It's gotta happen. Better yet, I don't really even care what kind of shape the mirror itself is in, since all I use it for is holding on my GPS/rearview camera monitor. I'll probably just cut it down leaving just enough to glue to the GPS/monitor.

Mark,
Mine was missing, and a fellow GMC'er gave me one that he picked up for me at Autozone or somewhere like that. It's a universal one that came with a bracket that glued to the windshield. I tried that, and it fell off. After a little fritzing around, I realized that if you left the glue part of the bracket out, the mirror base would slide over the T-brackets that protrude from the GMC. It was a little sloppy, but the adjustment screw did a pretty good job of tightening it up.

Thanks, Craig... I'll check that out. Strangely, I was in an Autozone not five minutes ago... (sigh).

hi ,

this is a standard GM mirror ..

I have one you can have or you can go to a junk ward and pick up one as I did that has the two lights built into it ...

uses the same mounting ... and needs to be wired up ... I plan to pull the power from the light over the drivers head..

Hope this helps
