M38A1 CDN3 Mirrors

[chris vickery]

Been having quite a chat with Wayne H on this as well.
It seems that the rectangular mirrors were a replacement, possibly an upgrade to the OEM design.
Obviously, they are pictured in the service manual plate for the CDN3. For whatever reason, Jeep Toledo used these instead of the round ones.
Was this an official upgrade to the original design, that ended up getting carried over to replacements for already in service vehicles?
If this was the case, shouldn’t there be a CFTO on it?
From what I have found, Dominion Automotive, a defunct Toronto supplier sold these to the CF sometime between 1979 and when the Jeeps went out of service mid 80’s. Dominion went bankrupt in 2014.
This leads me back to Jeep Toledo. It’s obvious then that they weren’t sourcing mirrors from Dominion in 1970-71 to complete the contract, since they weren’t even in business at that time.
I’m still curious to know if there was a NSN or if Toledo simply used a commercially available mirror of the day. This would make sense to me, they were building CJ-5s during those years and would have had them in their supply chain already. Willing to bet the CJ-5 mirror was the OEM used on CDN3s….
