Truck-Lite 97809 7x16-Inch Heated Silver Stainless Steel West Coast Mirror Head (Universal Flat Back OEM Replacement, Replaces Signal-Stat 7084/7085)
Maintain clear rearview visibility and conquer freezing winter conditions with the commercial-grade engineering of the Truck-Lite 97809 7 x 16-Inch Heated West Coast Mirror Head. Developed as a high-strength, premium visibility replacement for Class 6, 7, and 8 over-the-road semi-trucks, vocational dumps, flatbeds, and heavy-duty logistics fleets, this large rectangular flat mirror provides a true-view, completely undistorted line of sight. By ensuring drivers maintain an accurate perception of trailing vehicle distances and wide-load clearances, this assembly is an essential update to satisfy strict FMVSS 111 commercial rearview safety visibility standards.
Never let frost, ice accumulation, or cold weather condensation compromise your road safety. The 97809 comes equipped with an advanced, field-replaceable PTC heating element engineered to deliver consistent, regulated warmth across the lens surface, keeping the glass frost-free even in sub-zero alpine temperatures. Built to withstand the absolute worst conditions of long-haul transport, the assembly features a durable silver housing formed entirely from bright, polished structural stainless steel. This premium industrial metal construction provides excellent physical rigidity against high-speed highway wind resistance while standing up to corrosive winter chemical de-icers, road salts, and coastal humidity.
The optical core features heavy-duty full 1/4-inch thick flat glass cushioned within a protective, shock-absorbing vinyl perimeter gasket. This specialized assembly style protects the glass plate against severe chassis vibrations and road shock, preventing edge peeling, fracturing, and internal silvering breakdown.
Designed for standard fleet service compatibility, the 97809 uses a stud and threaded rod mount connector configuration that integrates smoothly onto a West Coast rigid bracket layout. It functions as an immediate, exact-fit direct field replacement for legacy Signal-Stat 7084 and 7085 series mirror profiles, providing fleets with a seamless way to replace damaged or non-heated heads without changing out the main bracket arms.
Direct premium replacement for historical Signal-Stat 7084 and 7085 profiles; cross-references with Grote 16053, NAPA 97809, Navistar FLTMIR4022, Velvac 708525 / 708001, and Automann 563.9028 / 563.9087
