Retrofit power mirrors into OEM murakami manual ones? (3 Viewers)

[jonnyd42]

I have aftermarket mirrors on my 62 with plastic chrome and they look horrible. Wondering if it's possible to retrofit the OEM power mirror motors + mirror into new OEM murakami housings? I found these, but they are manual only. Honestly I'm OK with manual only as long as they're adjustable just by pushing on them from the outside (vs having to connect them to a lever on the interior, which my 62 ofc doesn't have)

manual 60 mirrors do not have a lever inside the car.

Regardless.. 70 series power mirrors are a direct fit to a 62. Plugs right in and work perfectly.

Those look great! When you say "plugs right in" - these are still manual operation right?

the electrical connector is the same as the 62, so, it plugs in. So nothing needs to be modified.
