ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This particular application discloses an outside mounted vehicle mirror assembly of the type adapted to be mounted on an outside panel of a vehicle wherein the mirror head may be positioned alternatively between in- board and outboard viewing positions to accommodate unobstructed rearward viewing through the mirror depending upon whether or not the vehicle is carrying a rearwardly disposed cargo which tends to interfere with the rear- ward field of vision. The assembly of the invention includes an integral bracket member having a laterally extending leg portion with an inner end disposed proximate said vehicle panel and a downwardly and inwardly inclined leg portion having an inner end disposed proximate said vehicle panel, and a support arm having a first end supported proximate the laterally outer portion of said bracket member for rotation about a substantially vertical axis. Said support arm includes a second end upwardly inclined at an acute angle to the laterally extending leg portion of said bracket member. A mirror head is provided which has a transverse mid-plane. The mirror head includes a support shaft having an axis generally parallel to and laterally offset from said transverse mid-plane. The support shaft includes an end projecting exteriorly of said mirror head and supported upon said other end of said support arm to permit rotation of the mirror head about the axis of said support shaft, and first and second bracket means respectively pivotally connecting the inner ends of the bracket member to said vehicle panel whereby the bracket member may be positioned between a fully extended laterally out- ward position and a folded-back storage position generally parallel to the vehicle panel.
