Hi folks,
I used to be a member. I had a '68 1098, sold it a few years ago. Well, the bug has bitten me again. Lol.
I've just bought a '53 splitty. No mirrors on it, though. I've noticed that lovely green car on the homepage has a mirror drilled through the chrome door top. Anybody know where I could buy one of these?
It's my Daughter's car. Try Bull Motif part no. MIR101/102. Note. If you're buying a pair reverse them (the driver's side on the passenger side) etc .this makes them more adjustable. Take the stainless steel triangle off the car and clamp it to a vice to drill. Fit the mirror and then fit to car.
Hi,
As above, 'Convex' gives you a better field of vision than flat glass.
Best wishes,
Mike.
1954 Series 2: 4 door: "Sally" -- Back together, more flatting and polishing to come, now the engine just refuses to run properly.......
1970 Triumph Herald 1200: "Hetty" -- Driven back from Llangollen in Wales (twice.....)
1952 Morris Minor MM highlight with sidevalve engine still fitted, wants work, so joins the queue for now......
Well.....drilled a nice hole in the quarterlight. Woe is me, the threaded part on this mirror is too short. It doesn't go all the way through to the inside. Can't do up the nut.
Ah.....brute force! you should have said. lol. They're on now, and they seem pretty functional.
I would never have thought of swapping left for right....they are wing mirrors after all. Just need to find a grommet to blank an unwanted hole on the driver's side.
