Revision as of 01:35, 24 November 2007

Datsun 1200 came with different mirrors for different markets. Mainly:

• left-hand-drive vs right-hand-drive models
• fender-mounted for Japanese market vs door-mounted for other markets

In general, coupe and sedan used the same mirrors.

Also see: Parts Reference for a list of part numbers

Japan Market

In Japan, mirrors are mounted on the top edge of the front fenders. It seems they always use two, on both R.H. and L.H. fenders.

GX

GX models had round guard-mounted "bullet-style" mirrors. These were also optional on Deluxe and GL models.

early GX

late GX

The mirrors on these GX models were black with a chrome-like ring.

When fitting fender-mounted mirrors to non-JDM vehicles, use the factory drilling template.

Aftermarket variations include:

• aftermarket? all-black
• aftermarket? all-chrome
• aftermarket? gray with black ring
• Short-stalk mirrors from Rare Spares
• Short-stalk mirrors
• Angled mirrors

Aftermarket from American Auto

Mitsubishi Colt?

Datsun 1000 Coupes had an optional bullet mirror. It was all-black with a matte-black finish:

http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photos/thumbs/6526.jpe Datsun 1000 Coupe (optional)

B210 mirrors?

PB210 mirrors

B210 mirrors

Standard

Standard trim models used a round fenger-mounted mirror. The Van Semi-DX also used these the first year.

Optional for all Coupe and Sedan was the GX-style bullet mirrors.

Deluxe And GL

Deluxe and GL Body Styles used a rectangular wing-mounted mirror. It was finished in chrome. It differs from non-JDM mirrors in that it had a different stalk for mounting to the top of the fender, and (?) has a slightly trapezoidal shape.

Van Semi-DX after the facelift used this.

Optional for all Coupe and Sedan was the GX-style bullet mirrors.

late GL

In Australia, you see a lot of Datsun 1200s with JDM-style mirrors. This is an older mirror:

Datsun 1000 mirror on 1200?

Other Markets

Most markets outside of Japan used a door-mounted mirror. These are strictly rectangular (not trapezoidal). These came in silver-gray or darker-gray matte finishes. Apparently the color changed over the years.

LHD

LHD mirrors were mounted close to the front edge of the door (farther forward than RHD mirrors):

In the North American market, only left-side mirror was offered. But a right-side mirror could be ordered through Nissan. It is unclear if Chrome was ever offered as a finish. The North American parts catalog lists only one part number, but it is known that the color varied over the years.

LHD Gray-finish mirror

LHD Darker Gray-finish mirror

LHD Chrome-finish mirror - stock?

Euro? or aftermarket?

South America? Or aftermarket?

Portugal

RHD

Australian mirrors were dealer installed at the time of 'pre delivery' & can be found in various positions from the rear edge of the flipper window up to the front edge of the door.

Does the AU parts catalog list left-side mirror or only the right-side one?

Reply. .............My Australian parts book lists only one external mirror for Australian Datsun 1200 Four Door Sedans, Coupes & Vans [Four Door Wagons] Part Number 96310 - H1900. & this is listed as being used from 10/71. No left side mirror is shown for the 1200 passenger models & it is not clear what was used up to 09/71, if anything.

Datsun 1200 Utes [B120] up to 1981 are shown on my microfiche as using the same right side door mirror from 10/71 [96301-H1900] with another one, [96301-H9500] also being listed as being used in Australia & interchangeable with the former, but not listed as superceding it as no start date for its use is shown.

A left side mirror, Parts Number 96302 - G1271 is shown for Australian use from 11/80

Two other mirrors are listed with odd details, being 96301-H5950 [right] & interchangeable with the second 1200 car mirror [96301-H5900] This mirror, 96301-H5950 is shown as being applicable to, ... "AST, OPT [exc. AST]"

The left side mirror is 96302-H5950 & is shown with an introduction date of 04/79 but is not listed as being interchangeable with other left side mirrors. This too is shown as being for "AST, OPT [exc. AST]"

RHD Gray-finish mirror

Was chrome a stock finish in Australia? All the pics of chrome mirrors look like they are not as tall as non-chrome, so they may be 1600 mirrors.

Reply. .............The mirrors on Australian B110 & B210 models appear to be the same as each other & were gray. The Mirrors used on most Australian B310 models look to be the same as these earlier ones, but were chrome finished. A left side mirror was required by law for Wagons & other commercial types [Vans & Utes] in some of the B310 production years, so the B310 Sportswagon was fitted with a matched pair of chrome mirrors that seem to be 1200 clones.

RHD Chrome-finish mirrors

South Africa

South Africa models had chrome mirrors mounted far forward on the door. They look unique from other countries.

Deluxe

GX (same mirror as Deluxe)

Aftermarket

• Carbon-fibre mirror
• Bullet-style mirror (Modified from short-stalk version)
• 1980s Italian-style
• Supercheap - not as tall as stockos

Mirror Comparo

Sunny Truck

Early JDM Sunny Trucks used the same mirrors as Deluxe cars:

• 

LHD LB122 late-model mirror

Aussie Ute

Early Utes used the same mirror as cars, though in a black finish:

Some were mounted farther forward on the door:

RHD B120 late-model mirror

Late Aussie utes apparently came with a semi-gloss black mirror:

• 

Stock mirror? Body-color

Stock mirror? Body-color

Color-keyed

B20 used round mirror

Bakkie

Newer bakkies (B140) used a black rectangular mirror mounted far forward on the door.

2001, 2003 Bakkie

2005 bakkie

2006 bakkie

Was body-color a factory option?

• 

Kiwi Utes

New Zealand utes featured a black matte finish mirror.

Left-hand door mirror was an optional accessory on New Zealand Road^Star ute, but was standard on Sport^Star.

L.H. mirror as also a part of the Dress Pak 2 for Roadstar.

Interior Mirrors

Datsun 1200 has a gray rearview mirror that mounts with a single screw to the roof header.

1972 USA Owners manual (see page 6 for interior mirror information): The inside rear view mirror is a two pivots type, so can be easily adjusted to suit any driver.

Large Datsun 1200 mirror vs smaller B310 mirror

rear view mirror

Kiwi Roadstar featured an vanity mirror (per text in photo)

Note that discontinued (NLA) parts can sometimes be found on eBay or from individual stores (NOS or "New Old Stock"), so adding NLA part numbers to this article is useful.
