Mirror replacement 87 k5
Vehicle: 1987 K5 blazer
I am looking for new mirrors, taller ones like what the jeep wrangler comes standard with. Basically I would prefer about double the height of the stock mirror. It would be nice if it was like the ford F350 mirrors (others?) where it had the curved mirror at the bottom, but still had the height that the jeep ones have. This is a big vehicle and its difficult at best to see many of the subcompacts out there who are insane with phone calls, texting, watching DVDs and whatever else they do instead of driving.
Can anyone recommend something either they personally have had good experiences with, or directly know someone who has had good experiences with a taller mirror (I would prefer to avoid "friend of a friend" type recommendations for obvious reasons).
I really dont want a mirror that gets loose and flops around after it gets whacked with brush and all that.
Thanks

Depends on what year F350 you were looking at as to how difficult it will be to mount up. Some of the two arm style mirrors are pretty universal. I have a set on mine right now that could support a larger mirror if they were not already shot. I am going to the lower profile, newer style mirrors though.
