Alternate side mirror options?

I'm in the process of repairing, repainting, replacing almost everything on my Blazer..it's about a month away..still..from paint..however..I'm not really that impressed by the stock mirrors...I have a 2 1/2 inch lift..and even though small, it renders the mirrors pretty much obsolete...I am restomoding more than restoring..so I would prefer some mirrors that would actually serve a purpose..but not take away the look....any suggestions?...my biggest issue is that the mounting bracket can only be 2" high..so it limits my options..any help..would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure these fit your requirements but are correct for 72 pickups and much better IMO than base "sport" mirrors and smaller than the only optional K5 mirror (the larger DF2 style camper mirror): http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=408318

Re: Alternate side mirror options?

Yeah, I see your point. I too was reluctant to go standard (on the burb) because the mirrors were too small for towing with the Blazer. I bought the 5x7 Stainless from LMC http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cb/full.aspx?Page=85". I like them and they kept me from drilling more holes in my doors.
