Can anyone tell me if a passenger side mirror was an option for the 73 Charger SE?  Thanks!

All cars got optional passenger side mirrors, but on 3rd gens just the racing mirror, not the standard one. It doesn't exist a standard mirror for passenger side for 3rd gens. On 1st and 2nd gens, the DeLuxe one was an option for passenger side, ALTHOUGHT the standard one driver side can be made to fit like it was naturally born to the passenger side too.

These are however NON REMOTE. You had to adjust it manually yet. The remote passenger side piece began on 1975, and even being pretty much similar, is not exactly same piece to the earliers.

Thank you Nacho!  I may try using a driver's side mirror.  My 69 has both mirrors and I use the passenger side a lot.  Would really like to have one on the 73 as well.

Is not posible to use drive side standard mirror on 3rd gens for passenger side like on earliers (or A bodies) due the diff side door shape. Earliers and A bodies is posible because the mirror location on both door is flat/horizontal and BY CASUALITY, the pedestal angle is aprox parallel to the car lenght... just Racing mirrors on Chargers are posible on both sides matching the door side.

You could try to use 73/74 Coronets DeLuxe mirrors too which are look a like to DeLuxe 2nd gens mirror but accomodated to the sloped door shape , but still will need to match both sides and will need to find them NOS or Used, since they are not being reproed.



But wouldn't make any sense... better get the pair of Racing ones if you want mirrors on both sides
