I made the mirrors myself. The stock mirrors are very heavy, so they tended to vibrate a lot since they are mounted to a not so stiff portion of the door. My mirrors are much lighter and stay steady. Also, the F100 has a notorious feature where the passenger side mirror is blocked by the post between the vent and main windows. So I moved the mirror further back.
I bought the actual mirror portion, very cheap, like $10 each. Then made the rest based on style. The stalks are 4130, the bullets are tubing that I rounded and tapped. The base uses a big washer that I ground a rounded edge on. The bolt is surplus airframe.
