Just make sure you are getting 964/993 mirrors and not 928 mirrors. They mount at different angles!
You also want to avoid 968 versions as the bases are different.
They are mostly known as aero although the cup cars did not have powered versions to save weight. Also the glass is quite expensive IIRC over $200 a side since they are heated so make sure you get good glass with them. I don't believe they made special glass for the cup cars without heat although I did source some without heat but passenger side was standard mirror.
Interesting. I found a set of 911 Aero mirrors that are manual at the Hershey swap meet years ago. Didn't think they were from a Cup car, just figured the power was common option and the base cars came with manual mirrors.

The RSA, RS and cups all came with manual mirrors the C2/C4, speedster and turbo all came with power heated mirrors.
Since you guys are chatting mirrors. The driver side on my RSA seems like the glass is coming off. It has been flopping around sometimes and I just press on it and it stops for a while. Is this just glued on? So just pull it off (the mirror), clean and reglue?
Someone hook me up! Save me from FleaBay, I beg of you.
Colbalt, no joke about the glass. Suncoast had them listed for >$200. That may have been for one, not a pair.
Were in luck as I need a new right side but they seem to have come down in price. Sunset has them for $148 ea. LOL it appears you can get regular mirror 96473103500 L (036) R and convex 96473103700 L and (038) R for same price.

The mirror glass has a double stick tape that attaches to the metal piece I posted above. If it is loose see if you can use an adhesive or something to secure it otherwise you will be buying new. I lost one on track I looked to my right and watched it fly off at 130mph. Glad nobody was behind me or had their tires punctured because of it.
If you haven't done it before there is a little toothed piece that you can access from the hole at the bottom. I don't recall which way but rotate it one way or the other and it unlocks the mirror metal plate and all and allows you to pull on it and it will pop off. Will make adhering the glass much easier with it off. Just make sure you lock it back in place once done.
The aerodynamic mirrors come in manual and power versions. They are aerodynamic replacements for the flag rectangular mirrors and mount on a stalk which needs to be 964/993 , not 968, to get the angles right.
Although most cup cars came with aero mirrors when I think of cup mirrors I think of a completely different , very small manual mirror that is bonded to the quarter window. I think it's sometimes called an RSR mirror and based on a small vitaloni Sebring, modified in a triangular fiberglass housing to match the contours of the door frame and tuck in to minimize the profile. Very cool mirror. More of a race application.
My guess is that you are looking for the aero mirrors.
Ruf used the cup mirrors as shown above on the yellow bird but they used adhesive to bond them back then. IMO the cup mirrors are useless and don't give you the view you're looking for.
