    Thanks for all the great responses. I have sourced one of the early fat style mirrors(spendy). I have the rig in my shop about 45 minutes away...and a snowy mountain Pass. Will get you an update when I can get a hole pattern also. Thanks to all again, Dukes

    What does a 66 fj40 rear view mirror look like?

    The build date was June 64...could be reason for different vent Still shaking this thing out. It is very possible that parts were swapped at one time.

    Builds My 69' 55
