So I bought some manual side mirrors that mount up on the corner of the door...but the did not come with the Interior mirror trim cover.  At least I think that is the name for it.  Does anyone know a part number or where I can pick some up?  Interior Manual Mirror Cover Trim???

Best place to pick those interior mirror covers is a pick and pull salvage yard.  Any 96 and before XJ will/should have them unless someone else got them first or if the XJ had power mirrors.

Actually, with power mirrors they are what he wants.

Did you buy the XJ manual mirors with the joy stick controllers, or the MJ manual mirrors with the blank interior plate that requires opening the window and reaching outside to adjust?

The manual remote mirrors ((joy stick) were available on MJs not just XJs.

Yes, but both my '87 Pioneer and my '88 Chief have the dual side mirrors that don't have the joysticks. Both types are what can be characterized as "manual" mirrors, so the question had to be asked. The type without the joystick was never used in the XJ (AFAIK), so that's why I referred to them as XJ and MJ types.

The "joystick" remote mirrors are very common in junkyards. Make sure you loosen the tiny set screw underneath where the joystick comes out (Torx size 6) and don't try to just rip them off.

If you can't find a set, throw up a classified ad on this site. I think I've got a set in good shape I could give you for the cost of shipping, but you'd likely be spending less at a junk yard because Canada.
