New member here. Happy to see there is still interest in these beautiful and well-designed cars. Can anyone point out the difference between 83-84, 85-86, and 87-88 Cougar side view mirrors? The year ranges are listed separately when looking them up on ebay and other parts sources. I absolutely need a right one for my 85, but the chrome finish on my left one isn't great. Will the newer or older style fit in their place? I don't care if they are year correct or if the electrical plugs are the same, only if both sides match and will fit onto the door properly. I found someone parting out an 87 Cougar on Craigslist and would just buy both mirrors if I was certain they would fit. Thanks for any info that can be provided on this.
