Default side mirrors

Hi
Sorry for my bad english, i'm french.

My car is a 98 camaro 3.8

I have bought a set of mirrors (elec) on this site but there comes without glasses and supporting plates

So i want to find a solution to repair it.

Before buy new glasses, i want to try a home made supporting plates.

But i will be more easier if i could have a drawing of the glasses. Maybe on DXF or DWG file (autocad sofware).

If someone have this or could make this.
I know this is a difficult thing

After that i valid the plates does T/A glasses (blue) could work on a camaro?

Many thanks for your help

Thank for your answer but in france we can't have all the parts or price are too expensive.

I need also the pins that move the glass...
An other choice is to fix the glass but i will loose the adjustment. But once it's adjust..

I have post a thread to find some wrecked mirrors. I don't want to buy a complete mirror, the shipping is expensive.

So if someone have a wreck mirror i will take the pins, supporting plate and glass.

On my job i could have mirror finish stainless, maybe to replace the glasses. This is why i need a dxf file.

Many thanks to help me
