Christophe the second picture according to the CJ2a page parts list as contributed by Sean Collins is the correct swivel for your mirror. The 1st one would probably work as well and only the "Jeep Police" ( Jeep Gendarme) would know.😁

Thanks so much for the answer
For my opinion the first black color was for CJ2A and the second grey color was for CJ3A? Christophe |

I'm having trouble finding a part number for an 'early' CJ2A inside mirror, but as of July 22, 1946 the details show your second mirror was used on CJ2A then carried onto CJ3A with a different bracket.

Hello Joe
My CJ2A is an early January 1946, it means she will have the first type not the second type because is arrived in July 22. Joe one more question, this mirror was an original accessory not in standard? Because I have one beautiful picture of one CJ2A 1945 and she don't have the this mirror? |

I reviewed the Bill of materials for the Early 2A and found no reference to an inside rear view mirror as a standard part or an accessory. I think Fred Coldwell might be the best person to confirm with .
