1964-1965 Mirror Attaching Kit
1964-1965 Mirror Attaching Kit , 1964–1965 Outer Mirror Attaching Kits are specialized, reproduction hardware sets designed to securely mount factory manual side-view mirrors to a vehicle’s door skin.
Manufactured by classic restoration brands like RestoParts and distributed across major muscle car repositories, these direct-fit kits eliminate mirror vibration and stabilize the mirror housing against the sheet metal. (Note: If you purchase a brand-new reproduction mirror assembly from most major dealers, this hardware kit is typically already included in the box).
What the Kit Includes
Each individual kit is configured to install one side-view mirror (universally fitting either the driver or passenger door) and contains:
- Die-Cast Zinc Mounting Bracket: The hidden anchor plate that screws directly down into the door skin’s pre-drilled holes to create a rigid foundation.
- Injection-Molded Gasket: A form-fitting plastic or rubber isolation spacer that sits between the metal chrome mirror base and your car’s painted surface. This component seals out moisture to prevent door-rust while ensuring the chrome base doesn’t gouge the paint.
- Mounting Fasteners: Includes the counter-sunk sheet metal screws to secure the inner bracket to the door frame, alongside the hex-head or flathead locking set screw that clamps the outer mirror assembly tightly to the bracket tab.
Broad GM Vehicle Compatibility
Because GM streamlined its sheet-metal mirror footprints during the early-to-mid 1960s, this exact bracket layout cross-references across several popular lines, including:
- 1964–1965 Chevrolet: Chevelle, Malibu, El Camino, and Chevelle SS
- 1963–1965 Chevrolet: Corvair (including Monza and Spyder trims)
- 1963–1964 Chevrolet: Full-size lines including Impala, Bel Air, Biscayne, and early Chevy II / Nova models
