Side mirrors

I got doors for a 91 Suburban I swapped onto my truck.

Down side is I didn't have the factory power mirrors. So my mirrors didn't fit. So I got some generic 60's style sport mirrors.

Bad news is the passenger door has a black spot on the glass.

Any word on how to remove the black paint?

Re: Side mirrors

The black spot is a cover / block off so you can't see the inside of the power mirror (they overlap from the door shell to the glass). I always thought that was a sticker.

You could always swap the glass with the ones from your old doors (if you still have them).

Re: Side mirrors

razor blade often does a good job on paint.

The passenger glass was scratched so I tossed it.
