moulded door mirrors
Discussion
I salvaged a couple of motor assemblies out of a Ford siera a while back they were 4 wire and the mechanics look similar to the ones in my 350i. I have not had chance to try them yet though (winter project). I hunted high and low trying to find a glass that fitted my pod, I found a couple that were close but not close enough for my liking. So i bought a sheet of the make your own mirror plastic stuff from Motor World and cut one to suit. It seems to work fine but it is worth while making sure that whatever surface you stick it to is reasonably rigid as the plastic mirror stuff is quite flexible.
Graham,
I was told by somebody at Woodwork that the mirror internals of the old mirrors fit into the series 2 pod type.
I notice that your 280 is for the track, I seem to remember in a previous post there was somebody who tracked their car and removed the pod type due to the possibility of door damage should the pod mirror meet a straw bale or other object!
So if you have RHS pod for sale.......

mmm i've got some of the older mirrors somewhere, i'll try that..
yeah the car is a racer, and im fed up with either setting the mirrors in the paddock and then someone knocking them as they walk past, or the blinking things moving during the race....
i wouldnt have thought the door damage was any more likley, and anyway it tends to be armco and tyres that i've hit...
cheers
for all the pointers guys...
p.s. the pod i've got is lhs...
