This might seem like a unreasonable question. The mirrors on a Silverado pick up look like the same connection to the door as the Astro. Is there a difference?

Re: More Mirrors.
i assume you mean a pre 99 silverado, in which case yes the mirror itself is the same however the mounting plate is not, if your mirror is damaged you could swap out a silverado mirror at the breakaway point i would imagine, only if your mounting plate is undamaged though.
99 SLT Safari AWD, G80/GT4 rear, Burgundy, 196,000 and counting (strictly AMSOIL) flowmaster 40series muffler no more cat, K&N Kone Filter, roll pan, 255/60/15 rubbers mounted to 15x8.5 inch American Racing Tailgunner wheels, billet grille, CB Radio, Alpine Deck, Shag carpet, the list goes on....
03 Chevy Silverado 2500HD, LB7 Duramax Diesel, 5 speed Allison Tranny, Crew Cab Long Bed, no muffler or cat, 4 inch turbo back and side piped. not too many other mods yet, also addicted to AMSOIL.

Re: More Mirrors.

If looking for "more mirrors" when pulling a trailer or because you need more visual for safety, do investigate the slip-on towing mirrors. I used a set of slip-on towing mirrors on my previous AWD van. For the few times it did tow a wide load (that I needed to see around), the slip-ons worked great.

Note: Do shop around because selling prices do vary.
Hope this helps as well...

Re: More Mirrors.
I would love to figure how to mount Freightliner Century/Argosy mirrors to the doors.
