I bought one of these and its excellent. I had to extend the groove in the base to get the correct angle but works a treat. Much better than the bullets it replaced. I mounted through the bolt hole for the window catch.

that,s a good idea, can you still use it with the window open (assuming you can open the window in the first place. :) )

I've got one of those on my Mk2 Woody. I had to drill the window catch slightly to get the mirror thread to go through. I was surprised at good the view in the mirror is as I was expecting it to be a bit iffy. The window operates as normal, but you do have to move your head when wantng to use the mirror.
