Anyone have a 1990 or 89 right side Fj 1200 mirror looking for one that's original in good shape

It may be time to convert to the CBR250R mirrors.

What are e benefits Fred ?

Do those mirrors give a better view etc, or are they just very similar to the FJ originals ?

The benefits are a much better rear view. Aesthetics are subjective, but I think the Honda mirrors look better also. Here is a photo of a set of CBR250R mirrors on my 1989 3CV. The 2nd photo shows the Honda mounting base. The holes need to be slotted like the photo.

Thanks Fred, I think I'll get a set - the lens in my rt hand side mirror has started to vibrate.....buying the CBR versions rather than trying to take apart and fix my existing set seems like a good option  :good2:

I would consider buying your right side if you do the conversion—- I would prefer to keep mine stock.

Those are really good looking mirrors.  The only thing that would stop me is that my stock mirrors already get close to some auto mirrors when I split lanes.
