I have a remote on the Drivers and I added a manual companion mirror on the passenger side. It does help but not much. I wouldn't mind trying a parabolic add on for a wider angle.

Do you know if they make a non-remote control version for the driver side?

I don't think so but I would be tempted to try a right side one just to see how it sits.

Thanks! I'm shooting for something simple, so I'll probably just grab a single double post manual mirror. They seem to be pretty plentiful from what I'm seeing.

I really like the looks of the 2 post mirrors. I would try to put one on each side. Too bad they couldn't be remote control.

Hey can one of you guys with a '66 HT help me out. I'm installing the weatherstrip and I'm wondering how far up the A-pillar the door weatherstrip is supposed to go. Does it overlap the roofrail seal?

Would someone mind snapping a photo of the weatherstrip relative to the A-pillar trim like this. Thank you!!
