can anybody recommend any decent mirrors i can fit to my mk11.
i,ve got a pair of clip on overtaker mirrors at the moment which are ok for pottering around but not much use on the m25.

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.

Yep same here Raydot copy, just removed the 8mm fixing bolt and replaced with 6mm then it fits through the window catch.
Cheers Mark.
