I've been searching online for 1974 Nissan S10 Silvia Fender Mirrors for awhile now and i cannot locate them. I searched Ebay , google and the japanesenostalgiccar.com forum ect. No luck. I know that there are other fender mirrors out there , but i want these specific ones.



Any help will be much apprectiated.

Try posting in the Datsun or Classic Z forum. I'm sure they would have more info on said mirrors.

Well , this is the 240SX Forum / 180SX Forum / Silvia Forum . And its not a Z , its a Silvia. But if a mod feels it belongs in the forums you mentioned , let him move it there.

eh... if you want I will. Just let me know...

but he's right tho, I'd say the majority of these guys on this board are too young to have collectable classic Nissan cars..

and if they did, you think they'd wanna give or sell them to you?

Who cares?

Slappy, Dr. Birkmire (aka the guy who founded NICO) has a 1st-gen Silvia and might be able to help you out. Unfortunately he doesn't post here often but if you hit Greg up, you might be able to get in touch with him.

Also, even though Club S12 is devoted to S12s obviously, it doesn't hurt to check them out.

Those are damn near impossible to find, Tom.

I found some reasonable facsimiles for my '72 Z, but the originals are few and far between.

Slappy the chances of finding those are somewhat slim i hate to say it, but the chance of fabricating some replicas isn't, i saw a set that resembled those VERY closely the other day online...and yea the Z guy probably would know more than the Silvia guys...c'mon how many S12 posts do you see in the 240SX Forum / 180SX Forum / Silvia Forum ..then divide that by 2 and you'll have how many S10 posts there are, hit up some older Nissan guys. or get someone in Japan on here to check some yards for you...if they exist in Japan?just thoughts bro

Hey These are for older Z's but im sure with a little bit of work you can add on the length to make them sit high, but they are the bullets like on the S10http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...7.m32That one ended, i was going to buy them for my brother's 280zx for Christmas but i didn't, Good luck!
