Lucas 608 OEM replacement C20697

Post by Sugy77 »

Hello together,

Lucas is reproducing the type 608 rear view mirror. Did any of you fit this one. Is it a good option or will the educated view spot the difference from miles away?

Many thanks for your feedback

“Made in England” on the originals, although they look a good reproduction.

Yes but if you want a NOS one then you will have to pay a lot more.
I bought this for a customer..but ended up fitting a mint original as I hadn't time to make the bracket :roll: , so will try and sell this one
