    Looking for a gasket for the passenger side mirror for my 1970 Buick Skylark Convertible. I need it for the three sheild chrome mirror, not the sport mirrors. Is anyone making them? I couldn't find them in any of catlogs I have. If not, anyone have ideas on how to make one?

    The originals are molded, have a lip, and I do not believe are reproduced.

    It uses the same gasket as a non-remote driverside chrome mirror. You can probably find one here.

    Duane,
    Have you retired your business? The website no longer works. I also heard that you no longer have the sport mirror gaskets. Do you have any ideas on how we could make a reasonable gasket?

    Thanks, I'll see if I can find one of the gaskets on the site.

    Doug,
    The website has not worked in years.

    At this time I am almost completely out of parts, and have very little time to do anything right now. I do have plans to start up mirror gaskets and rear shelf corners but have no time frame at this time.

    We will also be starting up the steering wheels soon. Broke a piece of the mold (the date code plug) but it is almost finished now. The wheels will be first, then the other parts.

    I will post on the boards when the parts become available.

    Thanks for the info. Guess I will crutch up something temporary until you get yours done.
