Default Jdm import vs US Model mirrors

Hi,

Recently bought a 95 Z28 as an upgrade for my 94 v6. The z28 is a Jdm import so it has the square mirrors.

They are ugly as hell and I will be buying the teardrop mirrors are they a straight swap?

For reference I'm a UK owner not in the states so there isn't many people around to ask advice😂

You're right, those things are ugly as hell Just judging by how they mount, I would say yes, it's a direct swap. There's just 3 studs with nuts that mount the mirror to the door.
