Default Houston - 99 Z28, M6, 94k, bone stock

First, thanks to everyone here for providing quality information that I was able to read through extensively prior to purchasing the car.

As reflected in the title, I am now the very proud owner of a bone stock, single-owner, 1999 Camaro Z28, Hardtop, M6, Artic White. Stock options include Traction Control, Hurst Short Throw, leather, & power everything (almost).

I am now making my list, and trying to prioritize it by price/necessity/gain/etc. The obvious first fix was a blown front blinker bulb, as well as emptying all the glass from the housing. Needless to say this was a recurring problem for the previous owner. A special thanks to whomever posted the tip of drilling a small hole in the bottom of the housing to eliminate continuously exploding bulbs.

I'll get a picture up in the next few weeks. I'll probably wait until replacing the wheels/tires, as I have a cracked rim and the treadbars are showing.

Default Adding a request...

Can anyone recommend a place to get a power passenger-side mirror. It's a '99, so I would like to find one that is already black.

car-parts.com is a search engine to local junk yards

ebay has replica stock mirrors most of the time

It's easier if you have the part number, it's on the underside of the mirror mount most likely. Use that in your search. Where are you at in Houston, I'm up near The Woodlands (new owners as well)

Thanks Jim. I'm not far from you at all, and Lord knows it doesn't hurt to have a dealer 'connection'. I appreciate the help.
