The black plastic mirror covers on my 78E and 79F are slowly turning to dust. Sets would be great but singles in good condition will work too. PM me with details and cost. Shipping is to 24120. Thanks!

Had the same issue - plastic on the backs of the mirrors disintegrating and looking shabby. Had similar lack of luck finding replacements on-line. (I think you're looking for round) So, sanding with a few grades of fine sandpaper, application of several coats of plastic-friendly exterior-rated flat black paint (sanding again between coats), if you don't take too close a look, they look a lot better than before. Not talking big $$$.

I bought a replacement set from PartsnMore. They looked identical to my originals, except the logo on the black pastic was blanked out. You really have to look close to see that.

Earl, I'm on e-bay every night looking for something, no luck so far. I usually keep a running list of search items.
Brian, thanks for that suggestion as well as the link.Comment

Nice score Brian! Wondering now (20/20 hindsight) if that was easier than painting the backs of the originals. Maybe (?) still cheaper after exchange & shipping. Although that rationale has stopped me from buying on-line in the past.
