Source for replacement inside rear view mirror glass?

[torredcuda]

This is actually needed for my `76 W100 truck project but figured maybe there is a company that sells replacement glass for old cars and trucks? I brought it to a local glass company and they said they no longer do them due to the chemicals involved, good ole EPA I suppose.

If the glass is removable, I'd trace it's outline on a piece of paper and find a local stained glass shop. They should be able to cut you one in 5 minutes flat. Conversely, buy a piece of mirror and a glass cutter and do it yourself. Go slow and don't go over the same etched area twice with the cutter. Good luck

Not that simple, the glass is beveled - thicker on top and has some type of coating on it to give it the day/night function.

Thanks, have always wonder how they work.

I needed the glass for my challenger. I never did find a source. It seems that it could be custom cut. I ended up picking up one at a swap meet pretty cheap.

The only thing I could really find was this video for cougars. It shows how to replace the glass for that set up and I think he talks about different glass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vyuSBPelq8&t=1s
