I recently purchased a used Guide day/night rear view mirror for my 1966 C-10. I guess they are kind of rare, because I have never seen one before.

I checked the option list for the 1966 Chevrolet trucks, and I did not see it listed. Was it only available for GMC trucks?

I ment to say that the mirror was standard or required in 1968. It was considered an option 60-66 I believe.

Standard and Day/Night rear view mirrors were available in the '60-'66 Chevy trucks. The Day/Night was an optional upgrade from the standard style.

There are 2 models I believe, 60-63 had a flipper type with day night marked on it like the passenger cars. 64-66 had a twist button on it. The trucks shared alot of accessories with the passenger cars. 1963 Chevrolet truck seat belts were the same as the passenger car rear seat belts according to the accessory book.
