But they looked fine until you try to reverse using they it was like trying to drive Mildly miffed as they distort the image too much to judge anything.

If he keeps breaking them I suppose it's better than no mirror! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveturnbull Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Famous Four do them.... Not cheap tho. Still, cheaper than constantly replacing normal mirrors. Unbreakable Mirrors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Famous Four do them.... Not cheap tho. Still, cheaper than constantly replacing normal mirrors.Unbreakable Mirrors X-Eng These look very similar to the ones we're flogging - but a fair bit cheaper! I can't buy them for that money! I'm pretty convinced by mine - I've tried beating one with a club hammer and it just bounced! I had a few laser cut from mirrored plastic - but when you put them in to the standard mirror head, the image does distort some (a bit like the funny mirrors at fairgrounds ). If you want to try some of the plastic ones, send me an SA(padded)E and I'll send you a couple to try for free. I only have a few mind!

snailracer Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 The wing mirrors on my 109 are plastic. dont quite get the visibility of glass but i have n't hit too many things. Got a feeling they came off a van from the british leyland stable. sherpa possibly. matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
