You can contact Lauren Engineering for some. He has a set that he made molds from and sells them with his mirror kit. But he will sell them seperate also. You might luck out and find some NOS ones somewhere but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Thanks for that info, Poltergeist. Those base gaskets are NLA from GM.

Ernie, That certainly is a picture of your mirror that Tony stole... :lol:

Sorry Tony!
I didn't know what car the mirrors were going on. Awhile back I asked Mike about the ones that he had, and of course he sold you the better ones. That's when I was looking for a pair of these mirrors. Then Mark Gallo offered me a set at a great price. I later found out that the base gaskets would not work on the Malibu. You learn something new everyday. I feel guilty now...I'll try to find some a pair of base gaskets for you. Oh, I did see what Lauen Engineering wanted for their mirrors.... 8O
Yikes!! I could only imagine what he gets for his base gaskets....double yikes!!

Tony,
At the time we were both looking for a set of these mirrors, we had no idea that there was a difference in base gaskets and various mounting positions. Goes to show you, you learn something new everyday.
Good luck finding a pair. I will also keep my eyes and ears open.
I know you're pulling my leg about making me feel guilty.... :lol:
Talk to you soon.
Jack :D
