Blind spot in mirror - Calling BO55VXR

[Boggie]

After a couple of near incidents due to the blind spot I have stuck on a Halfords blind spot mirror but it looks crap.

I saw BO55VXR's post how a Pontiac GTO Passenger Mirror Glass (#92147343) will fit all 04/05 CV8 & VXR models, eliminating the blind spot. Will this also fit my 2006 model CV8?

I have found a source in Manchester who can supply them for £57.56 (£42 + £6.99 delivery +VAT). Is this a good price or is there somewhere cheaper? How easy are they to replace?

Thanks,
B

I paid less than £25 for my monaro one if i remember right, there was a small group buy around 6 months ago.

I have a spare one that you can have if you want for a reasonable price.

Fantastic! Many thanks. What would you consider acceptable? In the US they are currently £26 plus shipping.

Cheers!

£25 and it is yours. I can post it off tomorrow.

It has fitting instrctions although Chris (BO55) fitted mine.

Oh, and FYI, your CV8 is an 05 model. There wasn't any imported after that it is just that they were never registered.

slight OT but the glass on the monaro is very easy to replace, the vxr8 I snapped the old mirror to a billion pieces

Stig,
I've fitted a couple, and the motor has popped out with the glass, rather than the mirror breaking.

I know that Nick put together the last group buy on here. I then bought a couple of batches in, and would be willing to again, if there's sufficient interest. I think I knocked the VXR8 mirrors out for about £25 last time, to cover the duties and horrendous postage.

Mirror posted, how's that for service?!?
