Posted a couple of weeks ago about this. Still can't find the donor car they come from. Anyone got any ideas? These are the seperate type mirrors featured on the earlier wedges not the moulded type. Mine are really tired and need replacement. Also, where is a good place to get touch in paint? Or do I need to get it mixed specially by a paint shop???
Thanks in advance.

I seem to recall that the nearest match was a MK2 Fiesta....

Picture may help as they're are likely to be a few options.
I could do with a n/s miror as it don't have one, just 2 small holes where it once lived.

Hi

If they are the original electric mirrors which screw/bolt to the door side (Not the window frame/pod type) they originaly came of early Rangerovers!

They don't look like the electric ones!
Similar shape, apart from the fitting, to the door!

In redoing my 1984 Tasmin/280i, both of my original mirrors were in deplorable shape. INasmuch as I could not find original replacements, I used a set from Vitaloni that were almost a match visually, but only lacked the electrical adjustment, which I did not find a big problem as once you have them set, you don't have to adjust them.

Thanks, definitely not the Range Rover ones. Will post a pic but they are a composite design with a metal back that fits on to a plastic frame, also have a mount bracket which attachs to the door and then the mirror attachs using two allen screws through each side of the stalk part. Vitaloni ones sounds interesting, where can they be sourced?
