Reply to "Progress pics of my Mangusta"

For those who want unblemished quarter window glass (Mangusta or Pantera), be aware that Dodge Omni mirrors were not glued onto the little Dodges' glass. The mirrors screwed to a thin triangular flat-black plate that was screwed to the inside lip of the door. The mirror hid most of that bracket and the fuzzy hid the rest. It should take most of 15 minutes for an average Pantera owner to duplicate a mounting plate from scrap aluminum or steel. Then the spontaneous debonding of glued mirrors that often happens, won't.
I use Dodge Omni mirrors with cable remote adjustments, but instead of making a metal bracket, I replaced the quarter glass with home made Lexan units, and drilled mounting holes clear thru the plastic. I also made contoured shims from scrap wood 2x 4s to get the proper angle for both myself @ 6'2" and Judy @ 5'4', but the mirrors have done fine for 20 years. Plastic quarter windows can be tinted at home just like sunglasses, to match the windows or windshield.
