I have an 86GT and I slapped on a set of 88 1/4 windows. I'm looking for a set of side mirrors but all i can find are powered ones. And my car originaly has manual mirrors. I looked at 50resto.com and all they have is power. I havent tried a yard yet, but are 87-93's are power mirrors? or did an LX have manual mirrors?

my coupe is manual everything but I was told that all mirrors are powered, they just don't connect to anything. I checked mine awhile back and mine are do in fact have the power plug on then, they just don't connect to the manual wiring harness anywhere.

I actually got a center console with the mirror adj. on it and I bought the harness to make mine power, but I never put it on. I still have it sitting in the garage somewhere, but then I sold that center console bc I found a black manual one.

buy whatever you can find. on ebay they are only like 15.00 anyway (last I looked)

good luck

I"m thinking about just buying power mirrors and the switch and making my own custom setup for my car. I hate having to reach across the car to adjust the mirrors plus 86 mirrors are so small it's almost pointless to even have them.
