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
Fabio

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

What sort of base can you use to fit the repro one in a mini, they look very good and cheap

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
