Well then they could have said Lotus, Jaguar XJ220, Venturi or Aston Martin who all used the same Citroen CX mirrors. smile
Or Renault, Mega-Aixam...

There is the first part of an article in the last "Auto-Rétro" magazine where the designer of those mirrors is explaining the story. Initially, the hard black plastic part at the rear was supposed to be a flexible bellow holding the glass to improve the aero. But they were running out of time having difficulties to make it work, so they kept the aspect.

+1 for a fantastic thread.

My passenger side frame split at the mount point last week, got a replacement frame and now the toadstool has cracked...this design furious

I'm interested in a set too as the drivers side has started to wobble also

Hi 4rn0.
Could you email me please.
Hi just picked up my Chimaera and think that I could have the old wing mirror problem.
Excuse the post, but couldn’t seem to get your email address?
Do you still do these, if so at what cost and does a “set” mean one or two wing mirror fixings?

Hi All,
Well after a long wait I now have another batch of these kits available.
To save you looking back through the post, the kit is still £50 inc UK p&p and it is for both doors
So if you want to solve your mirror fitting problems please drop me a line.
Brian.

Message for Keeling 54.
Thanks for your enquiry.
I’ve have replied to your email but my reply is returned by the postmaster as undeliverable.
I have also tried to contact you through this site but am unable to for similar reasons.
Could you amend your email address and contact me again please.
Cheers. Brian.
