Will this Deluxe Manual Mirror Kit fit my 1985 Vanagon with power mirrors?

Yes! This mirror kit is designed to fit all 1980-1991 Vanagon models, including both manual and power mirror versions. It’s a direct fit, so you can upgrade your existing mirrors without worry.

How hard is the installation? Do I need to drill or modify anything on my Vanagon?

Installation is straightforward and hassle-free. The kit requires no drilling, cutting, or permanent modifications. It comes with complete, easy-to-follow instructions, so most customers find they can install it themselves with basic tools.

Will this mirror kit actually stop the mirrors from flopping and vibrating at highway speeds?

Absolutely. The Deluxe Manual Mirror Kit addresses the common wind-flopping issue by using a spring-loaded multi-position detent system modeled after original VW power mirrors. This keeps your mirrors stable at speed and reduces vibrations.

How durable are these mirror arms and bases? Will they hold up in bad weather?

The arms and mounting bases are made from durable black powder-coated aluminum, which resists rust, wear, and corrosion. Customers report the mirrors hold up well through rain, sun, and road conditions over many years.

I’m worried about the quality. Are these mirrors sturdy and safe for driving?

Yes, they are highly rated for quality and sturdiness. The robust design improves safety by providing a stable view at highway speeds, reducing distraction caused by mirror movement, so you can drive with confidence.

Luv these mirrors! Think they’re going to work perfectly!! An upgrade the style and look of my 1984 VW Westfalia!!

Great look and no more floppy mirror

These are nice mirrors, but there are a couple of things that could be improved:

1) Design issue: When you pull these Go Westy mirrors back flat against the window, they do NOT click into place, they are only held in position by spring pressure. This means that should someone or something bump into the mirror, it will move and could be damaged or damage the vehicle.

2) Installation instructions issue: The Go Westy installation video and the text on the pdf installation instructions show and say 'install the small parts in the same way they arrive on the mirrors.' There's one part though that's actually oriented wrong from the factory. It's the cupped washer at the bottom of the spring. It comes inverted, the cupped side is down and the nut is partially inside the cupped washer.

If you look more closely at the pdf instructions there's a cutaway drawing, clearly showing that the cupped washer at the bottom of the spring is meant to go over the spring, in other words the spring goes inside the cup, which is the opposite of how it arrives in the package and what they show in the video.

The problem with putting that cupped washer on the way the pdf text reads and the video shows (with it upside-down and the nut inside it), is that when you try to put the rubber caps into the bottom of the mirror mounts, they won't go all the way in because when the cupped washer is upside-down, it blocks them. And, if the rubber caps don't go all the way in they will probably fall out because the only thing holding them is friction.

Perfect for my 1984 Westy.No more floppy mirrors. I put them on super easy to install.

A reflection of the GoWesty Brand

This mirror is a real multitasker; it reflects on things all day. But in all seriousness after have about a week to reflect on these mirrors, I can definitely see myself...recommending these

Good replacement for the floppy ones

Good replacement and improved visibility. It does make a new annoying whistle sounds on the highway and when it folds in it touches the glass so one has to be extra careful. Still a good improvement from the original ones.

Game changer!

Good bye floppy mirrors! These went on easy, are totally worth the money and i should have done it years ago.

Side Mirrors for Doka

Very nice set of mirrors. Very high quality and they absolutely do not bounce out of position. Many T3 owners have asked about them when seeing pics of them on FB forums. You will absolutely be pleased with them. Fit is perfect and they look OEM or better. A definite win!

New mirrors in 15 minutes!

Sheesh! That was simple and the mirrors look & work great! Every part fit perfect.

Deluxe manual mirror kit

These mirrors are fabulous no stopping to adjusting once set.
Just finished a 3000 plus mi trip
From Santa Cruz Ca. Az,NM,Co,Ut,Nv
Not one time did I have to adjust them.
Love them

These are great mirrors, more robust than the original factory fitted ones.
Very easy to fit with no drilling of new holes, I didn't even need to remove the door cards!
Description did not specify whether they were rhd or lhd specific.

Wow, excellent choice as a replacement for the original 1985 Westfalia mirrors.

Great mirrors and nice design! They are very sturdy and a great replacement for the older ones that were always loosening - I had the power mirrors on my van, without the power function, and the drivers side kept creeping down.

Absolutely brilliant ..a game changer..

800% better. No wind wobble.

It’s wonderful this product very strong and easy to install.

Super duper better than the other ones

Eliminated the floppy mirrors. Like convex passenger side mirror! Easy assembly despite no instructions. Adhered seal to mounting brackets. Special note that mounting brackets are marked L and R; got lucky. Rubber bottom seal does not fit inside driver's side mirror. Mirrors stick out further and higher than the floppies.
