Mirrors

I was just wondering what the stock mirrors on a 88 4runner look like? i went to the salvage yard and they all looked different so i am wondering if the ones on mine are after market. One ripped off in the bush. I am going to a special salvage yard this weekend so if mine arnt stock i could get two new ones maybe. any help would be awsome. THey are small black plastic mirrors



this pick sorta shows them, i cant find anything else but i could take a good pic if anyone wanted

Chrome + sandpaper + black paint = better then plastic.

I like a little chrome, but too much looks tacky!

pretty sure the plastic ones came on the base model trucks.

they came in chrome for the higher dlx and sr5 and black for the lower models. iv also seen some tow-style ones aswell. Theyre was also the chrome ones with the power options that look a little beefier than the normal chrome ones.

I think it depended on the vehicle's color. My red sr5 has black mirrors.
