Which is the correct mirror for a 65 SD I have searched the internet for many images of the car and I have seen mostly round one,s however, I have also seen a few rectangle one's also. Did they come with both or were the rectangle one's installed because round was unavailable?

Round head only. The usual mirror had a pointed end on the base in 1964/65, then the end went squared off for 1966/68. The remote controlled mirror also had a round head but those are very rare (are available reproduction but are around $120+).
Square heads weren't used on Beaumonts until 1968 on the optional remote controlled mirror, then the regular mirror went rectangular for 1969.

Below is a correct style mirror except for the Chevy "bowtie" emblem. The Chevelles in Canada didn't use the bowtie emblem since the parts were shared with Beaumonts.
Below is the 1966-68 style:
Finally the 1969 Beaumont mirror:

i c ant recall where i got mine but possibly year one and i read on the packaging 67 Firebird mirror and i had requested a chevelle miror
Hi rosies car. The pictures that Pontiacanada posted look identical to the ones I purchased from Car Parts Discount for my '64 CS. Item 6167, 9 (OEM D-1580x2) sold individually for $43.45 or $90.35 for a pair. They are interchangeable for the left and right side. I am very pleased with the quality of mine, triple chrome with a deep finish. These mirrors are new, not re-chromed. Good luck!
SO DARYL BY SEEING MY PIC AND YOURS WHO HAS THE AS CORRECT MIRROR ?????????
Yours may be correct for a Beaumont, I don't know, (sometimes the dealers installed a mirror out of their dealership parts dept.) but I absolutely do know that the mirrors Pritch & I have are correct for a '64 Parisienne. My old original mirror is identical to the ones Pritch & I posted. They are also listed as '64 for Pontiac in the Ames catalogue.

I would like to thank all of you for your input and links to different sites. I have found a few suppliers that stock the mirrors that you have displayed and I agree with all of you about the bowtie NO!.

Ya, it's actually the installation instructions for the mirror on CD performed by The Sex Pistols.
Imagine following those instructions!

I think they should be flatter or thinner
