Hi

I am not certain if the wing/door mirrors on my S1 FHC are correct!





The look similar to the ones on Stu/hallies car can anybody confirm by my pics if they are.

Ill confirm,
they look exactly the same, which is why comedydiss got a rocket from me when he had a pop at them as Im sure they are original.

Having said that, the owners could have both gone to halfrauds!!

I have got a pair of electric mirros that I was going to put on and use a tuscan control pad but Ive shelved that idea... perhaps they can be an item in the autojumble!

They look exactly like the Halfords ones I put on my Tasmin. I removed the long base and bolted the mirror stalk to the triangle at the front of the window frame.

I suppose, irrelevant of wether they are correct or not, they are cack!!
Ive given up using them except for reversing into the garage.

Exaclty..Thats where mine are from and they look the same..Perhaps some nice chrome bullet mirrors would look better..

John at SSCC Bourghbridge was telling me he had boxes of wing mirrors from the wedges. Few year ago but may be worth a try if you dont think yours are original.

Just taken off some very simmilar from my FHC and found a couple that dont vibrate so at least you can see whats trying to overtake you,

not the best but fix to same holes as previous but will do until paint job then we will find a better option simmilar to the SD1 rover style although only able to find chrome at mo fitting to widow triangle not the best pic but will suffice for summer driving ready for paint over winter
