If you try to put a pass mirror on the car, be careful where you put it...
The vertical post for the vent window will get in the way if you don't check carefully...
Have a helper hold it in place while you check it from the drivers seat point of view before choosing a final position...
Also check to make sure that the vent window will open all the way with the mirror position that you pick before drilling the holes...
Good Luck.

The 68 barracuda brochure does not list any pass mirrors as an option and all of the cars in it do not have a pass mirror in the pictures... FWIW...
Dads 67 has both sides. Factory. I can get measuements if u want
Steve, I would like pics of the style and measurements!!

I just matched where the driver side mirror mounts and done, that's what I did.

Cuda crazy
I added it to my 67 but I don't care about restoration
That statement alone, can have many implications.... :violent1:
Especially when spoken about Steve.... LOL!

My black car is a factory right mirror. i'm restoring another one that is a factory right mirror car. In 67 the mirror (either really) is pretty worthless due to the position of the mirror back on the door, where in 68-9 it was moved to the vent post and much more useful then the 67 location.
67-68 - right mirror is code 537
68 - right mirror is code G31
67-68 - right mirror is code 537
68 - right mirror is code G31

Is there really a diff. between the right and left mirrors ? thinking about an adjustable one for the drivers side, and trying to use the original for the pass. side. any comments? I ain`t worried about restoration either, want it to look stock, but run like ----gang busters!

I had an error. The 69, not 68, right mirror was code G-31
The angle of the mirror frame is slightly different for passenger side. This is the only style they came in IF the passenger side mirror was factory.

My 68 Barracuda is coded for and has dual mirrors with factory drivers remote. The factory right hand mirror matches the remote style.
The 68-up passenger mirror is set back like you said from the 67 mounting.....Still is pretty worthless. I can't ever see anything out of it. I know other people with 68-69's that say the same thing.
I've seen people install large convex truck mirrors (blind spot mirrors) over the whole passenger mirror to make them somewhat useful. I think there is a size that covers the whole mirror.
Dad did the same thing with the convex mirror, it helps a bit.
Back edge of mirror is 36" from back edge of door.

The passenger side mirror was an extra cost option, see the bottom of the page at http://www.hamtramck-historical.com...ataBook/1967/CCI05152011_00021 (983x1280).jpg
