Remote mirror.

[chrger1967]

I want to put in a remote mirror where a non remote mirror is now. Is it as simple as drilling the whole in my door panel and hooking it up? I’m afraid of ruining my door panel with drilling a hole. Anyone ever do the same thing?

A manual mirror is quite rare in a charger, I have 1 as well. That makes a non drilled door panel rare, if you catch my drift.
Not sure what driving situation would create the need to constantly re- adjust the mirror.. which is still easily done by rolling down the window.

I agree. I have only noticed one Charger besides RemCharger’s that had a manual driver’s mirror. This includes driving our car to Charger Meets and Mopar meets in Detroit, Farmington, Bloomington, Aurora Missouri, Jefferson City, Rapid City, Calgary and Edmonton Alberta >
Flew to Boerne Texas for a Charger Meet.
I did not explicitly look at all the cars, for manual mirrors, but I am fairly certain I would have noticed it.

There’s someone selling one on facebook, I think it’s a parts car. It has the remote mirror. It looks like the remote handle just compresses the door panel.

You have 75-up B-body mirrors then as no 74 came with a remote Passenger side mirror…

Not in my b body. In my Mark IV. My 74 RR is not remote. Its manual. I was just saying there are more mounting options other than the door panel if he’s worried about drilling the door. Just pointing out you can run the control cable anywhere you want if you get a long enough cable.
