Hey all... looking at changing my existing wing mirrors on my RA28.
At the moment it's got these useless little things, looks like there of a motor bike or something. Was after a set of moulded plastic mirrors like these ones of a Ford XC...

I realise that these particualr mirrors are very hard to find and I would like to know if any one knows of anything similar that may be a little easier to aquire?
Cheers Kirk

Not so much hard to find, but hard to find in good condition, and LH items are worth twice as much as the RH ones! I have several sets of these spare. All I did to fit to my Celica was modify the base of the plastic mirror to suit my door by shaving the plastic down to suit the door contour. You will also need to drill one more hole and fill one hole too (ie different hole spacing for the two mirrors!).

Cortina mirrors are similar and there is some aftermarket ones similar as well. Have a look in Auto 1 and Repco etc. There is plenty of options

If your wondering, they are actually carbon fibre race mirrors bought from some performance shop in brissy. Forgot the name of them now 
Anyway, they were meant to be da best, lol. Only if your not trying to see stuff behind you i guess.
