Occured to me over the weekend that the rear view mirror is a bit ugly.

Has anyone here ever replaced it with anything a bit nicer?

I was also thinking this, its bit to long i think?

How about the rounded mk1 Audi TT one.

If it's the same as the Chimaera which I think it is you can use a Peugeot 205 mirror. I replaced the one on my old Chimaera with one of these, it's much shorter.

It does look long but the functionality of that is really good. Just looks a bit cheap...

Surely any mirror which sticks to the windscreen would do.

Fitting is bonded to screen, when you buy the glass, so is best to use mirror from Peugeot or with the same mount

I fitted a polished stainless one
Looks much nicer than that big british leyland
inspired thing
Was a bit of a work up making a new boss to fit over
the windscreen bonded part

An auto dimming mirror would be handy. Anyone know if there's an aftermarket one available that would fit?
