Default Bullet mirrors

Will bullet mirrors from 1979-1985 regal, cutlass fit the 742 camaro? Or mirrors from the elel. Camino 75-840 fit? I'm trolling the junkyard an found some good candidates.

I imagine they would but the mounting angle may not be right, and the cable lenth could be way off too. The cables can be longer of course but not shorter.

Recently, I installed power mirrors on my '77. They came from a late 90's Buick Lesabre or Olds 88. They worked great and have a somewhat similar shape to the bullet mirrors. I wrote up the install of both the power mirrors and power windows on my blog at: Installed Power Windows & Power Mirrors on my 1977 Camaro « Jerry Forthofer's Car & Bike Blog

Man your car is gorgeous that is a clean 2nd gen and those mirrors look great on there! Next trip out I will look for these mirrors, is it possible that you could PM the wiring diagram you used for them?
