S1 wing mirrors

[Le TVR]

Does anyone know where the original fixed (black plastic) wing mirrors on the S1 came from? Can't find anything in the parts wiki. Someone has bent mine right forwards and dropped the glass out.

A picture of what you have might help, these "Bunny Ear" mirrors were common on the early cars although I think some very early S1's had a mirror carried over from the Wedge cars?

Bin them for something better Pete, it's what I did!

Mk1 Fiesta mirrors - look 'right' in terms of design and era, yet you can actually see out of them!

They're absolutely fine, if you don't use them for rearward vision.

You could, but they're available new for around £40 a pair
