Need rear veiw mirror

[DAZ]

Hi there

Does anyone know the best place for rear veiw mirrors been to the local auto shops and no joy,the stalks are not long enough on them just get a reflection of the panel behind the seats when fitted.

Thanks DAZ

Are you putting one on because you want one or because you need to?

I had one on my aeroscreen (mounted to the center bracket) but it fell off and I just don't bother anymore.

Just go faster than everyone else - that way, you don't need one.

I just don't like driving without one, wing mirrors are ok to a degree it's maybe just me but things look clearer in a rear view mirror.As for going faster than everybody else i like to know who i'm going faster than especially around lincolnshire it has the greatest population of unmarked policecars(sorry maroon vectra's/omegas) in the whole country.

RACEPARTS do some neat little Racetech mirrors for less than GBP30 inc VAT and postage - I got one with a convex lens and a straight stem and it works a treat.  Mounted it in the hole where the washer jets used to be and it's far enough forward that you get a good field of view without it being too far away.

Sorry but I don't know how to add a link but I'm sure you can find it yourself.

Daz,

You can see my solution to this problem in my build diary - look at the entry for 1st December for the finished item.

Moom.
