Product Description:
Hawks Motorsports is pleased to offer our clients the following: new reproduction passenger-side manual bullet mirror with the correct passenger-side mounting kit for the 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird and Trans Am, OER parts #20154908 and #R312.
This combined kit provides the primered passenger-side bullet-mirror assembly and the related components required to mount it in the factory exterior door location. It eliminates the need to purchase the mirror and passenger-side mounting kit separately.
The mirror features a zinc die-cast housing that reproduces the original GM sport-mirror contours and mounting profile. It is manually adjusted from outside the vehicle and does not use a remote-control cable.
The housing arrives in primer and must be properly prepared and painted to match the vehicle before final installation.

Complete Passenger-Side Kit
OER normally catalogs mirror #20154908 and mounting kit #R312 as separate products. This Hawks Motorsports package combines them into one passenger-side restoration kit.
The included R312 kit supplies the corresponding passenger-side bracket, gasket, interior bezel and screws required to install the bullet-style mirror in the factory location.
This package is appropriate when:
- The original passenger mirror is missing
- The original mirror housing is damaged or corroded
- The original mirror glass is scratched, cloudy or broken
- The original bracket or gasket is missing
- The mounting components were discarded during bodywork
- A standard mirror is being replaced with the correct sport-mirror configuration
- A restoration requires new components instead of worn original pieces
Manual Passenger-Side Mirror
Part #20154908 is a manually adjusted passenger-side mirror. The mirror glass is positioned by hand from outside the vehicle.
It does not include or require:
- A remote-adjustment cable
- An interior adjustment joystick
- A remote-control mechanism
The mirror glass does not display the later “Objects Are Closer Than They Appear” safety-warning text, helping maintain an earlier factory-style appearance.
Primered Finish Ready for Paint
The mirror housing arrives in primer and is not supplied in a finished exterior color.
Before painting:
- Inspect the mirror housing and primer.
- Test-fit the mirror, bracket, gasket and bezel.
- Confirm that the mirror base follows the door contour.
- Clean the surface with a preparation product compatible with the chosen paint system.
- Scuff, seal or re-prime the housing as required.
- Apply the appropriate exterior finish.
- Allow the paint to cure completely before final installation.
Professional paint preparation and finishing are recommended. Final color match depends on the paint materials, application process and condition of the vehicle’s existing finish.
Do not paint or permanently modify the mirror until fitment has been confirmed.

Factory-Style Sport-Mirror Appearance

This reproduction is designed to restore the original:
- Bullet-shaped housing
- Mirror-base contours
- Door-mounting profile
- Passenger-side orientation
- Manual-adjustment configuration
- Body-color exterior appearance after painting
The included mounting kit helps complete the installation with parts selected specifically for the right-hand bullet mirror.
Installation Notes
Test-fit every component before completing the mirror’s paintwork.
Before installation:
- Compare the new mirror and mounting kit with the original components.
- Confirm that the vehicle uses the correct bullet-mirror mounting location.
- Position the gasket against the exterior door surface.
- Verify that the mounting bracket aligns with the mirror base.
- Confirm that the interior bezel fits the door-panel opening.
- Check the mirror’s viewing angle and adjustment range.
- Paint the mirror housing after successful test-fitting.
- Complete final assembly after the finish has cured.
- Tighten the mounting points evenly.
- Verify that the gasket remains seated around the mirror base.
Do not overtighten the mounting points. Excessive pressure can damage the door surface, gasket, bracket or die-cast mirror housing.
If the vehicle was not originally equipped with a passenger-side bullet mirror, carefully confirm the correct factory mounting location before drilling or cutting the door.
Care and Adjustment
Adjust the mirror glass carefully by hand. Apply light, even pressure near the center of the glass and avoid forcing it beyond its normal range.
Clean the painted housing with products approved for automotive exterior finishes. Use automotive glass cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth on the mirror glass.
Avoid aggressive solvents, abrasive pads and high-pressure spray directed closely at the gasket or mirror-glass edge.
