Hello everyone just wondering if it is posible to put mirrors off a 95 to an 88. I was wondering in a salvage yard today and came across the 95 and they fold away and my 88 are spring loaded and the passenger side is broke. Thank you in advance for the input.

The physical mount is the same.
The 95 still has the same shape as the 88 IIRC
It wasn't until after 96 that they went to the larger almost oval-shaped mirrors.

These also will bolt right up, but I do not know if the electrical connections will fit.
Most of the 96-newer mirrors are electric remote. Some are even heated.

If a 95 will fit an 88, then a 96+ will also fit.

I converted my 94 manuals to 99 heated / electric. The wiring harness was a bear, but the actual conversion was 3 torx screws.

More info on the swap can be found on Gojeeps web site

Haven't seen these pics in years, forgot what it looked like stock.

Hope this helps
